Synopsis

In the turbulent 1990s in Russia, eighteen-year-old Svetlana is about to graduate from high school. She dreams of traveling and of becoming a Russian ambassador to the United States or England. But when she meets Yuri, a young ruffian working for the Russian Mafia, her life takes a drastic turn. Yuri wants to date Svetlana, but she rejects him, and Yuri swears vengeance. When Svetlana is offered the chance to be a nanny to a loving English family in London, she boards the plane without a second thought. Only too late does she discover that Yuri has carried out a vicious plot against her. Heathcliff, an imposing Englishman, certainly doesn't need a nanny-but he does need more girls for his prostitution ring, and beautiful, exotic Svetlana will make the perfect addition. Held hostage and forced to become a prostitute, Svetlana becomes all too familiar with the seedy London underworld. But Yuri didn't bargain on Svetlana's courageous inner spirit, and she'll do whatever it takes to escape-and seek her own revenge.
