UNITS

Medical student Bethany Hastings and her grandmother were enjoying their cruise, a relaxing summer break before Beth resumed her studies. The cruise ship Vivianne, was a small, intimate ship. Unlike the larger cruise ships which were massive cities, the Vivianne was a pleasant floating village. Passengers enjoyed a variety of activities, interesting ports of call, and fine dining, as well as the companionship of other passengers, while being catered to by an attentive crew. It was the perfect vacation. Until Beth s stumbled onto the Vivianne s deep, dark secret and her idyllic cruise became a nightmare. Because not all the passengers were enjoying the cruise. Below deck, hidden in the bowels of the ship, were ten kidnapped children. Ten little girls who existed in deplorable conditions. Ten little girls who would be smuggled into the country to be groomed and sold as prostitutes. They were the units.
