There is a lot of vulger language, which is used in a sexually way in some cases. Besides all of the language andd the violence, there is a very good story to go along with it.

Her and her mother decice to move away from Russia, and move to the America's, were her cousin Yuri Stolar will help support her and her mother. her mother and her had to be smuggled in here by ship, and on the way, her mother had become deathly ill. Her mother eventually passed away, and her cousin started to treat her like an animal. Shortly thereafter, Janna was sold by her cousin to a madam, for six thousand dollars. Janna was not comfortable with the idea at all. Shortly after being there, the madam had already set Janna up with one of her clients, but nothing went as it was planned. the client was very upset by everything, and was very furious, and decided that it was time for him to go. Little did he know, but he was leaving behind a very important piece of property, which would later turn Janna into a running fugitive.
