Summary:
In December 2015, Zac Easter, a twenty-four-year-old from small-town Iowa decided to take his own life rather than continue his losing battle against the traumatic brain injuries he had sustained as a no-holds-barred high school football player. Reid Forgrave was given accesss to Zac's own diaries and was able to speak with Zac's family, friends, and coaches. He explores Zac's tight-knit, football-obsessed Midwestern community; he interviews leading brain scientists, psychologists, and sports historians and takes a deep dive into the triumphs and sins of sports entertainment industry.
