Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Targets by Gerald C. Anderson, Sr. is a powerful, emotionally charged thriller that explores betrayal, survival, and the enduring strength of friendship in the face of darkness.

LaKeisha Blanks and Kiara Davis have been best friends since freshman year of college, but their once-tight bond has begun to unravel. Kiara, still haunted by a traumatic assault, openly blames LaKeisha for not protecting her. LaKeisha, burdened by guilt she can’t shake, tries to move forward—but unspoken tension hangs between them like a shadow.

When they move to Washington, D.C. for a fresh start, their fragile friendship is tested even further after meeting Brielle, a charming new roommate LaKeisha instinctively doesn’t trust. But Kiara, eager to reclaim her confidence and defy LaKeisha’s constant concern, follows Brielle into a world that seems exciting... until it turns into a nightmare.

Kiara is abducted and LaKeisha’s worst fears are realized—Brielle isn’t just a bad influence. She’s part of a sophisticated human trafficking ring, and Kiara is now a target.

LaKeisha races against time with the help of Detective Rodriguez to uncover the truth, expose the criminals, and save the girls who are being sold into a living nightmare. Along the way, she must confront her own fears, forgive herself, and rediscover the strength that trauma tried to steal.

Targets is a chilling and heart-pounding story about the cost of silence, the danger of misplaced trust, and the courage it takes to stand up and fight back. Gerald C. Anderson, Sr. delivers a gripping novel that shines a harsh light on modern-day slavery and the hidden battles so many women face—and the power of one voice to make a difference.
