HAROLD RHODES - The Blameless Victim

Local author Harold Rhodes will have a reading and signing for his recently published book The Blameless Victim.

On January 9, 2002, Marcia Rhodes was paralyzed from the chest down when an 80,000-pound tanker truck slammed into the back of her stopped Toyota Corolla.  The Blameless Victim provides an uncensored account of the emotional, medical, financial, and legal problems that Marcia Rhodes, her husband Harold, and their daughter Rebecca faced in dealing with insurance giants Zurich and AIG after that catastrophic injury.  The book tells the story from the date of the injury until the final decision by the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court on February 10, 2012.  That decision penalized AIG in excess of $20 million for its delaying tactics in settling the claim but refused to penalize Zurich for worse conduct.

The first 25 people to attend will receive a free copy of The Blameless Victim, and all proceeds from additional book sales will be donated to the Milford Regional Medical Center.
