Tell Me Everything: The Story of a Private Investigation
by Erika Krouse
Hardcover
From the publisher's website:
Erika Krouse has one of those faces. “I don’t know why I’m telling you
this,” people say, spilling confessions. In fall 2002, Erika accepts a
new contract job investigating lawsuits as a private investigator. The
role seems perfect for her, but she quickly realizes she has no idea
what she’s doing. Then a lawyer named Grayson assigns her to investigate
a sexual assault, a college student who was attacked by football
players and recruits at a party a year earlier. Erika knows she should
turn the assignment down. Her own history with sexual violence makes it
all too personal. But she takes the job anyway, inspired by Grayson’s
conviction that he could help change things forever. And maybe she
could, too.
Over the next five years, Erika learns everything she
can about P. I. technique, tracking down witnesses and investigating a
culture of sexual assault and harassment ingrained in the university’s
football program. But as the investigation grows into a national scandal
and a historic civil rights case, Erika finds herself increasingly
consumed. When the case and her life both implode at the same time,
Erika must figure out how to help win the case without losing herself.
