Organized sex slavery in the U.K.: Resources for undersranding?

I’ve read Girl A, and watched the BBC miniseries Three Girls (twice). I’m aware of the work of Baroness Cox, and of the
Medaille Trust.

What else should I read, watch, listen to, look into to understand something about this phenomenon? I’m in a non-English speaking country, so it’s not always easy to access books/films from the UK/in English. I appreciate any guidance on what books and so on are worth seeking out.

Also - it looks like the UK Government- the Home Office? - recently commissioned a report but said it would not be released to the public, then did a reverse and agreed to release it. But I can’t find it. Anyone have a link, or official word on when the report will be released, if it hasn’t been yet?

Thanks in advance for any help/ suggestions.

If you look into Govanhill and organised sex slavery, you'll find endless news reports and articles about it.

I'm not sure what exactly you're trying to understand about it to recommend a book on the subject. Whether it be a case study, something talking about the psychology of the subject or whatnot.

Sex slavery is a hidden crime and there doesn't seem to be any political will to talk about it; it tends to be lumped in with the generic term 'human trafficking'.
Data on slavery is held by the Modern Slavery Policing Transfer Unit and they have some training resources here;

There's a superficial article that has data collated from Freedom of Information requests collated as a graphic, it shows an alarming rise in the number of identified victims;
