Tara is an idealistic lawyer who wants to change the world. She has devoted her life to helping people during troubled times. She's a pillar of the community and admired by all. Alexander is a self-made entrepreneur who survived a horrific childhood. He amassed a fortune by bending the rules to win in business. He's a loner who trusts no one. The two of them have nothing in common until a teenage runaway is found beaten and left for dead in an alley. The girl is rushed to a hospital where she recovers with one exception: she refuses to talk to anyone. Tara's nonprofit foundation is asked to intervene. As she pieces together what happened, a terrifying trail of abuse leads straight to Alexander, a man who will do anything to protect his empire. The Foundation is a haunting tale about sex trafficking that doesn't hold back. The predators are out there, watching and waiting. * Warning: This book contains profanity, sex and violence.
