Review\n"Moe writes with painful honesty that needs to be heard by men and women alike. She took what would break most people and turned it into a clarion call. This memoir serves as a powerful tool for awareness and advocacy— a voice for the voiceless. No doubt this book will go a long way in ﬁxing our broken system, or at least bring attention to it. If you like books that could change the world, you will love this book." — Readers' Favorite, Five Stars.\n"Moe writes her personal experiences in the violent, misogynist world of men that women know all too well. This book embodies and forces us to look at the truth of the reality of male violence that women negotiate every day in patriarchy; and yet, it is also a story of triumph for women individually and collectively because we face that fear daily, and we are still here." 
—Trisha Bapti Journalist and Founder of EVE (Exploited Voices Now Educating).\n"A beautifully written, forensically researched story of resistance and revolution. An important tool in the feminist fight against male violence." 
—Julie Bindel author of The Pimping of Prostitution: Abolishing the Sex Work Myth and Feminism for Women: The Real Route to Liberation.\n"Moe demonstrates how survivors can transform their pain and internalized victim-blaming shame into an unstoppable passion to ensure these crimes are never forgotten and that justice be served. This raw triumph over tragedy proves that a victim can also be a victor." 
—Sally Clark, author of The Way of The Warrior Mama: The Guide To Raising and Protecting Strong Daughters.\n"Karen Moe has penned a powerful manifesto. This book touched my soul deeply. Some areas were difficult to read, but from one strong survivor to another - WELL DONE. Victim no more. Through her trauma she found her calling, one far bigger than herself. Fighting alongside others for justice. She digresses from her story several times to ask and seek answers about how to make the world safer, especially for women and children. This book is a call to action for all of us—women and men. You will want to put it down, but you can't, because it's so compelling." 
—Marie McKenzie, #1 Amazon bestselling author of Things That Keep Me Up At Night.\n"Victim is an act of re-feminization (versus repatriation) of a trammeled word in a lexicon of blame and shame. In this epic of survival and triumph the term victim assumes the same resonance as victor, a position to which Moe ascends not only with her overcoming of horror but of her utter and fierce honesty. Victim will sound in your blood and psyche forever as you learn to see the world through unveiled and awakened eyes." 
—Catherine Owen, author of Riven and Locations of Grief: An Emotional Geography.\n"Victim is a powerful, intensely personal and disturbing book, cutting deep into the soul about a topic that must be exposed. It is Karen Moe's impassioned manifesto ... an intensely chilling account of abduction, sexual assault and prostitution. But it is also the tragic and heart-rending story of untold millions of women and children worldwide who have been abducted, raped and forced into the brutal world of prostitution. Victim is visceral. It is a difficult book to read. It is a difficult book to put down. And it is a compelling must-read!" 
—Victor Malarek, author of The Natashas: Inside the Global Sex Trade and The Johns: Sex for Sale and the Men who Buy It.\n"A heartfelt chronicle of personal growth through mortal danger; Karen Moe has woven the elements of her life into a cautionary tale that unfolds like fiction but, as Truman Capote said, non-fiction makes the best fiction. This is a rigorously researched history of violence against women, and a treatise on how societal behaviour can be improved. Read this book and be informed." 
—Dennis Bolen, author of Stupid Crimes and Anticipated Results.\n"I was drawn into Karen Moe's book from the first pages on.... Karen Moe's thoughts about how the world could be made more secure for women are refr
