Duda weaves archival detail, dogged reporting, and human compassion into a narrative that never loses sight of the reporter at its center or the stakes for a free press. By seamlessly cutting through myth and spin, Duda has produced a definitive account that reads with the urgency of breaking news and the depth of a long forensic inquiry. The result is a stark and timely reminder of the journalism risks that come with getting too close to the truth.

Jeremy Duda, through years of dogged reporting, brings us closer than we've ever been to knowing the truth. His gripping and fearless narrative would have made Don Bolles proud.

Chris DeRose, New York Times bestselling author of "The Fighting Bunch"

Jeremy Duda's Murder in the Fourth Estate, the result of the kind of exhaustive research that Bolles himself would have appreciated, demonstrates the quality journalism and dedication to the truth that this landmark case deserves. I'm impressed - and readers will be, too.

Jeff Guinn, New York Times bestselling author of "Manson" and "The Road to Jonestown"

Thrilling. Part 'Godfather', part 'All The President's Men'. A thoroughly reported tribute to the power and importance of local journalism.
