Summary, etc.:
"On December 14, 2012, Robbie Parker's daughter Emilie was killed at Sandy Hook Elementary, a tragedy that changed Robbie's life and our country forever. By the next day, Alex Jones was on air claiming the shooting was a hoax. So begins Parker's "David and Goliath" story, a tale of hope and resilience amid hatred and division. While Robbie and his family spent the next decade attempting to grieve, Jones's fans harassed them, calling them crisis actors. The hatred pushed Robbie inward, disconnecting him from the world and his family. Four years after Sandy Hook, an Infowars listener accosted Robbie three thousand miles away from Newton, Connecticut, repeating the same lies Alex Jones had spread for years. Soon after, seventeen students were murdered at Florida's Marjorie Stoneman Douglas High School. Robbie and his wife spoke with one of the victims' parents and learned they were also being bombarded with hateful messages. He realized he could no longer avoid this terrifying reality, and with the help of Sandy Hook parents, lawyers and supporters, Robbie stood up to Alex Jones in court to heal and reclaim his daughter's memory." -- Publisher's description.
