When a young exchange student is found dead, the police are baffled. Malcolm Gladwell unravels the complex web of misunderstandings that led to the tragedy, challenging our assumptions about trust, communication, and the strangers in our lives. As he explores high-profile cases from history, Gladwell reveals the subtle ways our biases and preconceptions can blind us, with profound implications for how we navigate an increasingly disconnected world.
