Jak hluboko sahá lež, které uvěřil celý svět? Tato kniha odhaluje největší kulturní zločin moderní doby. Michael Jackson měl větší vliv na svět než jakýkoliv prezident, duchovní vůdce nebo intelektuál jeho doby. Vystupoval proti válkám, korupci a manipulaci. Odhaloval mocenské hry a odmítal pravidla Hollywoodu. Zpíval o jednotě a míru. Daroval stovky milionů na charitu a realizoval vlastní humanitární projekty napříč kontinenty. Bojoval za pravdu a spravedlnost. Burcoval lidi k probuzení a svět ke změně. Jeho vliv byl tak silný, že se ho rozhodli zničit. Tahle kniha vrací pravdu, která byla přes třicet let pohřbena. Přišel čas očistit jeho jméno a oživit jeho odkaz.
