Inhaltsangabe

Ethan Denison grew up in a rust-belt town that perfected the art of looking away.

Between a father who taught obedience through brutality and a stepfather whose addiction weaponized the home, Ethan learned to build rooms inside his mind — companions, alibis, and names — to hold what he could not survive alone. "Shadows of Innocence" is the harrowing account of those rooms: the blanket buried under concrete, the tape over a child's mouth, the mask in a window, and the ghostly friend named Oliver who becomes both refuge and accusation.

Part memoir, part clinical observation, this is a slow, unforgiving study of how communities, institutions, and family bargains produce both victims and monsters.
