Synopsis
The Officer's Daughter is a masterpiece. More than that, it's the perfect book for our troubled time. Johnson has written the deepest, most emotionally resonant understanding of forgiveness and justice I have ever read.--Darin Strauss, bestselling author of Half a Life The author reflects on a terrible tragedy that forever altered the fabric of her family in this remarkable memoir, a heart-wrenching story of love, violence, coming of age, secrets, justice, and forgiveness. When she was sixteen, Elle Johnson lived in Queens with her family; she dreamed of being best friends with her popular, cool cousin Karen from the Bronx. Coming from a family of black law enforcement officers, Elle felt that Karen would understand her in a way no one else could. Elle's father was a highly protective, at times overbearing, parole officer; her uncle, Karen's dad, was a homicide detective. On an ordinary night, the Johnson family's lives were changed forever. Karen was shot and killed in a robbery gone wrong at the Burger King where she worked. The NYPD and FBI launched a cross-country manhunt to find the killers, and the subsequent trials and media circus marked the end of Elle's childhood innocence. Thirty years later, Elle was living in Los Angeles and working as a television writer, including on many police procedural shows, when she received an unexpected request. One of Karen's killers was eligible for parole, and her older brother asked Elle to write a letter to the parole board arguing against his release. Elle realized that before she could condemn a man she'd never met to remain in prison, she had to face the hard truths of her own past: of a family who didn't speak of the murder and its devastating effect, of the secrets they buried, of a complicated father she never truly understood. The Officer's Daughter is a piercing memoir that explores with unflinching honesty what parents can and cannot do to protect their children, the reverberations of violence on survivors' lives, and the overwhelming power of forgiveness, even in the face of unspeakable tragedy., ""The Officer's Daughter is a masterpiece.

- r***r (2937)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufBook arrived today, 2 days before deadline given by the seller. Well-packaged & in good condition. Price was very competitive, & the book was accurately listed. Great communication. I appreciate the seller getting back to me when I was having trouble tracking the book's delivery progress. Apparently there were 2 different tracking numbers - one in Canada & the other in the U.S., since it was initially shipped from Canada. Thank you very much for your quick response & helpful information.
- i***6 (39)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufAs far as the item goes it was everything I was expecting and way better than I hoped for! Their packing was perfect and the item arrived unscathed. They sold for a very fair price when it comes to diecast. The seller description is a bit misleading when you’re waiting for tracking numbers, but their customer service communication is stellar!
- o***m (28)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufItem was received in excellent condition as described thanks to the packaging which is some of the best I’ve ever seen a seller use on eBay for a book/magazine. There was a small delay in shipping, but when the seller noticed, they promptly sent me a message and a % refund to compensate for any inconvenience. I was in no rush, so this was a fantastic experience overall. I would buy from them again in a heartbeat if the chance presents itself.Into The Vortex: How To Watch Doctor Who by Marcus Hearn Paperback Book (Nr. 395761214875)
