But not enough for Lyla Poitras, who disappeared one summer night in Tiverton, Rhode Island, and was found two weeks later off a roadside, dead from a bullet to the head. Amid news reports that Lyla safeguarded her privacy, there were whispers that she kept a little black book filled with the names of powerful men.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Veteran journalist Janine Landry Weisman was eight years old when this murder shocked her hometown. Decades later, on the verge of losing her longtime newspaper job, Weisman dedicates herself to investigating the cold case—and interrogating the myth that turned a twenty-seven-year-old insurance clerk into a prostitute.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e This true story reads like fiction as a determined Weisman pursues a quest to clear the name of the woman whose murder upended assumptions about where violence happens and to whom. Along the way, Weisman discovers Lyla’s painful secret and tracks down people connected to her. The trail brings her to the doorstep of an old man. Is he Lyla’s killer?","brand":"She Writes Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50865058447615,"sku":"9798896364764","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/de\/products\/9798896364764","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
