The Price of Silence

The Duke Lacrosse Scandal, the Power of the Elite, and the Corruption of Our Great Universities
Book • 2014
The Price of Silence delves into the infamous Duke lacrosse team case, providing a comprehensive and deeply reported narrative.

The book examines how the most combustive forces in American culture—unbridled ambition, intellectual elitism, athletic prowess, sexual and racial bias, and absolute prosecutorial authority—collided and exploded on a powerful university campus, in the justice system, and in the media.

It highlights the ever-widening gap between America’s rich and poor and how the powerful protect themselves, even at the price of justice.
