A Death in Kenya: The Murder of Julie Ward

Description

The murder of fourteen-year-old Julie Ward is one of the most tragic true crime stories of the late twentieth century. Michael A. Hiltzik reconstructs the events with journalistic precision and emotional weight, following the investigation across continents and uncovering the details of a crime that shocked the world. Hiltzik's writing is both respectful and unflinching; he does not sensationalize and instead lets the facts tell the story, resulting in a powerful meditation on loss, justice, and the enduring impact of a single act of violence. For anyone who reads true crime for the storytelling rather than the shock, A Death in Kenya is essential. It is a deeply moving account of a real American girl whose death exposed the darker side of the tourism industry and the failure of international law. The EPUB edition is available now on Eread.co.
