Produktbeschreibung
A nation in panic. A teacher accused. O'Keefe faces his toughest case yet. The summer of 1988 is ablaze-not just with heat but with hysteria. As Satanic Panic sweeps the nation, innocent lives hang in the balance. Private detective Peter O'Keefe never expected to be drawn into the storm, but when his daughter's beloved teacher "Miss Ginny" is accused of unspeakable crimes, he can't turn away. The case reeks of mass hysteria and hidden agendas, but standing against the tide could cost O'Keefe everything. As he fights to unravel the truth, he's forced to go toe-to-toe with shadowy child protection figures more interested in securing convictions than justice. With lives shattered and the weight of a nation's paranoia pressing down, O'Keefe must risk it all to expose the truth before it's too late. In a world consumed by fear, will justice prevail-or will the innocent be lost forever? A gripping crime thriller steeped in real-world hysteria, An American Tragedy is a heart-stopping tale of courage, deception, and the high price of seeking the truth.
