Surprised in the act by his younger sister, Becky, he turned on her as well. Billy then climbed the stairs to the bedroom of his other sister, Jody, and said, \"We're free.\" But is one ever free after an unredeemable act of violence? In this mesmerizing book-based on interviews with Billy and Jody as well as with friends, police, and social workers involved in the case-bestselling writer Kathryn Harrison brilliantly uncovers the true story behind this shocking crime and examines the extent as well as the limits of psychic resilience in the aftermath of tragedy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kathryn Harrison\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0345516605\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780345516602\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Ballantine Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/24\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 288\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 6.80h x 4.10w x 0.80d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Times Book Review\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/06\/2009 pg. 60","brand":"Kathryn Harrison","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45896410267903,"sku":"9780345516602","price":7.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5e7e2b48-3833-454a-a8d4-d88d94e36651.jpg?v=1721371325","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/while-they-slept-kathryn-harrison-9780345516602","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
