True Mercy is a fiction thriller written by Idelle Kursman, the mother of a son with autism. Below is a blurb about the book and information on where it can be purchased. For more information on Idelle Kursman click here.

 

Danger lurks everywhere for Marina. When the ship carrying her and other human trafficking victims from Europe arrive at a port in New Jersey, Marina manages to escape and wants nothing more than to be rid of her traffickers and free the other women. But one of the underground organization’s vicious henchman will stop at nothing to recapture her. Marina scarred his face while on the ship and now he only desires to inflict the cruellest death possible on her. She is doomed until an unlikely pair come to her aid: a young man with autism and his widower father. Still reeling from the death of their mother and wife, son and father encounter her by chance and all three become caught up in the powerful tentacles of an international human trafficking ring. Will the madman succeed and destroy all their lives? Will relentless evil triumph in the end?

 

“From the first page of True Mercy, I knew I was in for a wild, harrowing ride of a story. Thankfully, author Idelle Kursman is up to the task; she is a true storyteller and wordsmith.” -Robert Liparulo, best-selling author of The Dreamhouse Kings, The Thirteenth Tribe and The Judgment Stone

 

 

True Mercy is available on Amazon, IngramSpark, and Smashwords. Print and e-book.
