SOMETHING I AM NOT is a powerful look at the insidious world of human trafficking right in our own backyard, and the redemptive story of a young man's fight to get out.
A father who never loved him … A woman who stole his worth … And a brother he couldn't protect.
Where does someone run in the face of his deepest shame?
Billy McQueen works hard to keep his life together ... and concealed. At seventeen, he dreams of an escape from the barroom, his father's manipulation, and the advances of his father's girlfriend. However, on his eighteenth birthday, Billy is introduced to a younger brother he never knew he had. An eight-year-old who is barely capable of navigating the corrupt world of his father's boxing club.
In order to secure his own freedom, Billy must fight for it. But to save his little brother who is next in line for the slave trade ... he must die for it.
