Summary:
"This book explains what has become thousands of men's most guilty secret. Ireland is a haven for sex at its most seedy. It asks who exactly is offering the sex? What has led the women to come to this country to offer the services they do, what has driven them from their homes? Are they doing it voluntarily, or were they lured here by the promise of a better life and regretted it ever since? Who are the pimps who are taking half or more of the exorbitant fee? What has happened to those who practised the trade in its more traditional form on the streets?--Back cover.
