In a powerfully urgent and forceful work of personal reclamation, Michelle Bowdler tells her own story of a brutal rape and the personal toll of a botched investigation that went nowhere. That \"nowhere\" is what prompts her to ask how we as a society can call rape a felony but fail to bring its perpetrators to justice.

"A sear­ing mem­oir-meets-man­i­festo . . . [arguing] that soci­ety needs to rad­i­cal­ly reframe the crime of rape and how we think about survival." ―Gabrielle Korn, author of Yours for the Taking
