Produktbeschreibung
In 1992, as a college student in Pittsburgh, Emily Winslow was raped by a stranger. In 2013, she had created a new life in England, with a husband and sons and an established writing career, when her attacker was suddenly identified and arrested. Highly inquisitive and restless for answers, she applied her experience as a crime novelist to a personal investigation. She was thrust into an unexpected prosecution that pulled her between two very different worlds: a hard-boiled American drama of intense detectives and legal bureaucracy, and her rarefied new world in Cambridge, where the university’s rituals and pervasive formality were both a comfort and a challenge. Jane Doe January is the intimate memoir of a woman’s traumatic past catching up with her. In her first work of nonfiction, Winslow vividly recounts her long quest to see her case resolved, giving way to a strikingly honest narrative about the surprise possibility of justice after twenty years.

Autorenporträt
Emily Winslow is the author of a Cambridge-set series of crime novels (The Whole World, The Start of Everything, The Red House, Look for Her), the memoir Jane Doe January, and a writing book called Time to Write. Her books have been published by Random House, HarperCollins, Allison & Busby, and Shanghai Translation Publishing House, and have been called "brilliant" (The Washington Post), "vivid" (Parade magazine) and "dazzling" (Shelf Awareness)."Emily Winslow is a precise and expert analyst of the darkest parts of the human psyche." -internationally bestselling author Sophie Hannah"For Winslow, the story is central. Everyone has a part to play, every voice counts, every viewpoint is important, and no one person is the star. Winslow uses this literary device to convey the unreliability of memory, the potential incoherence of differing points of view and the challenging process of piecing together the disparate pieces of a puzzle. She's a sophisticated storyteller with compelling and unsettling books." -Rosalind Esche for Dear Readerwww.emilywinslow.com
