Více o knize

Angels Over Moscow is an inspirational first-person account by Dr. Juliette Engel, an American physician who founded the non-profit MiraMed Institute to reform maternal and infant healthcare in Russia. During her mission to enhance medical care for children in orphanages, she uncovered a connection between state institutions and an international trafficking network exploiting young Russian girls for prostitution. This discovery led her to Norway, where she confronted the grim realities of human trafficking. Determined to make a difference, Dr. Engel traveled throughout the former USSR, often facing great personal danger, to create the Angel Coalition—a network of villagers, educators, police, media, and government officials dedicated to combating trafficking and rescuing thousands of victims. Her efforts coincided with the collapse of the USSR, as the Russian people grappled with their identity amidst chaos. Dr. Engel's unwavering commitment saved countless lives and contributed to the healing of a fractured nation. In sharing her journey, she reflects on the unexpected path her life took, illustrating the profound impact of idealism and the choices that define our destinies. Her story serves as a tribute to those who fight for justice and humanity, highlighting the crossroads we all face in life.
