When fourteen year old Jada Thomas began spending hours online her family hardly noticed. She chatted with friends, listened to music, and even met a boy. It did her good, her mother thought, to meet new people and spend time at home. But the lonely girl withdrew from family and finally pledged her love to her internet boyfriend. He made her feel loved and grown-up. So when she ran away to be with the boy of her dreams, that dream quickly turned into the darkest of nightmares. The "boy" she had travelled to far away Florida to meet was actually a depraved internet predator. The small southern town of Mangrove Ridge is quickly divided between admitting that a "big city" crime had befallen their quiet community, and conducting a search that would inevitably bring negative publicity to their tourist destination. Years of strained race relations and a political grudge must be put aside if young Jada is to be found... alive. Lured Away shines a light on a very dark subject, internet stalkers and the victims that fall prey to them. The author pulls no punches in this disturbing cautionary tale.
