Perfect for you if...

You want to understand one of the most consequential journalism investigations in modern history, told by the reporters who broke it.
You're interested in institutional corruption and how powerful organisations protect themselves rather than their victims.
You care about accountability and want to read the documented facts behind the Oscar-winning film.

Maybe not for you if...

You're looking for a narrative thriller; this is rigorous investigative journalism, not a page-turner with dramatic reconstruction.
You're seeking a complete survivor's memoir; this focuses on the institutional failures and cover-up machinery.
You prefer to avoid detailed accounts of child sexual abuse, even when reported responsibly.

About this book
