What Ed Slattery endured could easily happen to any of us. This book captures an intensely personal and courageous journey after catastrophic loss. It challenges our basic understanding of grief, fatherhood and forgiveness. THE LONG BLINK is a fast, compelling read with an ending you will never see coming. Brian Kuebler’s brilliantly-written true story is better than fiction. And, it is beautiful.

THE LONG BLINK is the epitome of a page-turner. Once you pick it up, don’t expect to put it down until you’ve reached its shocking and explosive end.

When Ed Slattery personally told me his tragic story years ago, I was moved beyond words. It’s even more powerful and compelling in print. THE LONG BLINK saddens, informs and – ultimately – inspires us to take action against a growing danger on American roads.

Kuebler is one of this country‘s most persistent and dedicated investigative reporters whose writing eloquently animates some of the most important stories of our time. Once he met Ed Slattery, once he learned how Slattery‘s family was left broken forever by a tired truck driver, Kuebler not only saw an issue on our roads, but also a gripping personal story of tragedy and loss that helps restore our faith in humanity, and the often elusive power of forgiveness.
