Shoshana Walter’s Post

View profile for Shoshana Walter

Investigative reporter

I received a big box in the mail from Simon & Schuster yesterday and decided to force my partner to take dorky photos of me opening it up. I truly can’t believe that after so many years of work, hundreds of hours of intimate conversations, days spent pouring over books and documents, unraveling complex problems and stumbling across new ones, that REHAB: An American Scandal is finally out in the world. It is available for preorder and on sale August 12. REHAB is a narrative-driven expose of our country’s addiction treatment system and the government’s failed response to the opioid crisis. Publisher’s Weekly calls REHAB a “stunning debut investigation.” Bestselling author Robert Kolker calls it “eye-opening, necessary reading for a society in crisis.” And from legendary investigative journalist Eric Eyre: “With REHAB, Walter cements her place as master storyteller and one of the nation’s greatest investigative reporters.” I’d be grateful if you give it a read, and would love your thoughts if you do.
