From the horrific phone call that changed her life forever to the devastating acceptance that her son, Derek, a 22-year-old college senior in the best shape of his life, suffered a \"freak accident\" playing the game he loved, to the shocking twist: an anonymous email that detailed the gruesome truth, that her son's death was, in fact, preventable, compelling an investigation, a lawsuit, and ultimately a landmark settlement against the NCAA. Very Dark Places captures how quickly a life of joy can turn into a life of unimaginable grief, and it delves into an exploration of the pain and struggle to find meaning and purpose in a world that has been shattered. Grief is love, and since love never ends, neither does grief.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Derek Sheely Foundation","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47575860969623,"sku":"9798993257006","price":3033.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9798993257006.webp?v=1774899223","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/very-dark-places-a-memoir-of-grief-family-and-learning-to-survive-unimaginable-loss-9798993257006","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
