Title: Lookback Window
Description: Growing up in suburban New York, Dylan lived through three years as a victim of sex trafficking at the hands of Vincent, who promised to marry Dylan when he turned eighteen. Years later-- long after a police investigation that went nowhere, and after the statute of limitations for the crimes perpetrated against him have run out-- the long shadow of Dylan's trauma still looms over the fragile life in the city he's managed to build with his fiancé, Moans, who knows little of Dylan's past. Then a new law-- the Child Victims Act-- opens a new way foreword: a one-year window during which Dylan can sue his abusers. For someone who was trafficked as a child, does money represent justice? As Dylan is forced to look back at what happened to him and try to make sense of his past, he begins to explore a drug and sex-fueled world of bathhouses, clubs, and strangers' apartments, only to emerge, barely alive, with a new clarity of purpose: a righteous determination to gaze, unflinching, upon the brutal men whose faces have haunted him for a decade, and to extract justice on his own terms. -- adapted from jacket
