Book Overview

A gripping true crime memoir of loss, resilience, and an unlikely connection.

Kathleen Murray's life shattered on September 11, 1976, when her husband, NYPD bomb disposal expert Brian Murray, was killed by a terrorist's bomb. Life Detonated details her journey from a childhood marked by poverty in the Bronx to navigating life as a young widow with two sons.

As Kathleen heals, she sues New York City to uncover the truth behind the bombing and begins a correspondence with hijacker Julie Busic. Discover how Kathleen became a founder of Survivors of the Shield, advocating for families of fallen officers. This true story of love, loss, and forgiveness is perfect for readers of true crime, biography, and personal memoirs.
