Description
When the longtime abuse by a university's softball coach of teenagers in its youth summer softball program--and the university's strategic cover-up of those crimes--comes to light, a community is turned upside down in this drama-filled thriller perfect for fans of Kate Elizabeth Russell and Allison Leotta. Campus, corporate, and local politics collide when a high-profile sexual misconduct scandal rocks a prominent university. Serena Stanfield, Mountain Hill University's human resources director, has just learned that the school's softball coach has been molesting teenagers in its youth summer softball program for years, and that the university has covered it up from both her and the public. Troy Abernathy, a junior associate at an international investigations firm, is navigating a turbulent, toxic workplace as the company aims to be retained by the university to investigate these sexual assault allegations. Megan Black, a new member of the Mountain Hill City Council, is thrust into the fallout from the national scandal while she simultaneously focuses on securing a presidential commutation for her childhood friend, who is unfairly facing decades in prison after stabbing her abusive husband to death in self-defense. As additional disturbing details of the coach's actions are uncovered, Serena, Troy, Megan, and other prominent community figures confront competing interests and unique obstacles while they each pursue different paths toward obtaining justice for the softball program's sexual abuse survivors--and offer conflicting understandings of what justice would even mean.
