Description
Emma O'Donovan's life is forever changed when she awakens on her doorstep, her memories of the previous night a complete blank. The next morning, her parents discover her in a state of distress, with no recollection of what happened the night before. As the truth begins to unravel, a series of disturbing events unfolds, exposing the devastating consequences of rape and public shaming. The media descends, and the community is thrown into turmoil as the story of "Easy Emma" goes viral. The photos, posted under a fake account, are impossible for Emma to forget, and the fallout is catastrophic. As the investigation unfolds, the true extent of the harm caused by the events of that night becomes clear. This powerful and thought-provoking novel explores the impact of violence and public scrutiny on a young woman's life, raising important questions about the consequences of our actions and the need for support and understanding.
