An inspiring story by the Canadian woman who became the linchpin of the case to bring Bill Cosby to justice. Andrea Constand’s decade-long legal marathon required her to endure an excruciating civil suit, and two harrowing criminal trials. Ultimately, Constand’s testimony brought a powerful man to account. She also gained the knowledge that stepping up and doing the right thing, even when the outcome is uncertain, is the surest path to true healing. From the woman who has been called “the true hero of #MeToo,” The Moment is a memoir about the moment a life changes, as hers did when she was raped; about the moment when she stood up for victims without a voice and put herself through an arduous criminal trial; and about the cultural moment, signified by the #MeToo movement, that made justice possible.
