A Nest of Snakes by Deborah Levison Paperback Book

Description: A Nest of Snakes by Deborah Levison Abused as a boy at an elite private school, a wealthy but fearful middle-aged man pursues justice through a lawsuit... and by hunting pedophiles. FORMAT Paperback CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description In her fiction debut, Deborah Levison, author of the acclaimed, multi award-winning true crime book, THE CRATE, weaves a tale snatched from the headlines. A NEST OF SNAKES is loosely based on a spate of lawsuits in which adult men accused their elite private schools of abuses that shocked the nation.In A NEST OF SNAKES, Brendan Cortland is a broken man. Middle-aged, pasty, pudgy, and fearful, he suffers from chronic depression, nightmares, and agoraphobia. His contact with the outside world is limited to trolling chatrooms, where he hunts pedophiles, and a weekly session with his psychiatrist, to whom he describes dreams of being devoured by predators. The doctor suspects catastrophic abuse, and maybe something more; but in all his years of therapy Brendan never divulged the deepest source of his trauma.Pushed to his breaking point, Brendan embarks on a quest for justice. Its the terrifying step hes avoided for decades: going public with his story. His lawyer warns him that testifying might mean dredging up painful memories, ones hed rather keep buried.Still, no one is prepared for the horrible secrets and revelations that emerge during the trial ... least of all Brendan himself.Reviewers call A NEST OF SNAKES "heart wrenching," "raw and compelling," "unforgettable," and "a roller-coaster ride of surprising twists" leading to a "staggering climax" and an "absolutely perfect" ending. Monster Librarian hails A NEST OF SNAKES as one of the falls most talked-about novels. Author Biography Originally from Canada, she now lives in Connecticut with three children, two doodles, and one husband.
