Publisher's Summary:
Despite the subject matter, this is an inspirational novel. It's is a fantastic opportunity for a talented actor.
Out of Darkness deals with the abhorrent problem of human trafficking, the fastest growing criminal enterprise in the 21st century, ranking second after drug smuggling. There are more young American girls entering the commercial sex industry; an estimated 300,000 at this moment; and their ages have been dropping drastically; the average starting age is an alarming 13.
Out of Darkness follows Cynthia Lange from despair; her mother selling her into sexual slavery, to her rescue by the FBI, and her difficult transition to prominent physician at Brier Hospital in Berkeley, California. While she had escaped from the life; she can't rid herself from its aftereffects. She deals bravely with them and begins a new life. While the FBI created legend obscures her past, circumstances threaten to reveal the truth and destroy all she had worked so hard to create. We discover in this novel that the human spirit can triumph over evil.

Dr. Gold Tackles a Difficult Issue and Strikes a Chordâ
Iâve been a fan of Dr. Goldâs novels for several years, and have read most of his Brier Hospital series (Iâm getting there!) I said this a while agoâheâs up there in Robin Cookâs league. Although Dr. Gold is retired from the medical profession, he will always be a doctor at heart, as well as a gifted storyteller, so the nonmedical reader can understand what goes on behind the scenes that we never see or hear about. With OUT OF DARKNESS, he tackles a serious and heartbreaking issue, makes us understand the horror and gravity of it, and at the same time, we can actually enjoy reading this story (no, you donât have to consider it a guilty pleasure), because Dr. Gold makes it entertaining as well as informative. Dr. Cynthia Lange is the heroine, and her colleagues at Brier Hospital urge her to run for staff presidency, but sheâs reluctant, for several reasons. We see all the sexism and misogyny that no doubt exists even today (Iâm sure Dr. Gold didnât have to delve into imagination to create this realism) as someone tries to block her. Then we learn about Dr. Langeâs pastâshe was a trafficking victim from early childhood to age 13 at the Rabbit Ranch. We relive her journey and see her emerge as a successful compassionate woman willing to help other victims. We meet other victims along the way, and although the subject matter is disturbing, I assure you Dr. Gold gives us a happy ending. I urge everyone to read this novel to learn about this heinous practice, to become aware that this still exists in the 21st century, and why is our government turning a blind eye to it?

Above excellent medical and legal mystery drama
Many topics are covered including hospital staff frictions, life and death decisions and hospital dynamics. Terrific character portrayals and ongoing suspense as well as surprises make this book hard to put down. It describes how a young girl was able to escape a horrible
dysfunctional background and somewhat overcome the numerous residual traumatic memories. Relationships between men and women are
thoroughly explored. Even after finishing it, the plot remained in my mind for a lengthy time.
