Anne's story need never be written. If existing law had protected Anne, Ruby's Law would never have been written. Instead, Jo and Lennie begin a 20 year trek to find and rescue Anne from her abuser. Along the way, Ruby's senator sister pens a law that would have protected Ruby's kidnapped children, and Anne. They rescue hundreds of other women, children, and the occasional man. Often, the survivors have known no other life. They have been conditioned to believe abuse is normal. Can the New Underground Railroad Project stay on track to train abuse survivors to live abuse-free on their own? Or will they remain behind the legal bars that protect them from their abusers?
