“In this unflinching memoir disguised as a novel, Jake Ranney recounts his experience with sexual assault, institutional betrayal, and the long fight for justice. Written first as private journal entries, this story evolved into a lifeline—for himself and others who’ve been told to stay silent.”
Trauma & Memory: How the mind preserves—and distorts—painful details.
Justice & Failure: The legal system’s cracks, where victims fall through.
Survival as Rebellion: Why speaking up is an act of defiance.
