Book of Matt: the real story of the murder of Matthew Shepard. Stephen Jimenez. 2020.

On the night of October 6, 1998, twenty-one-year-old Matthew Shepard left a bar with two alleged “strangers,”  Aaron McKinney and Russell Henderson. Eighteen hours later, he was found tied to a log fence, unconscious and barely alive. By the time Matthew died a few days later, his name was synonymous with anti-gay hate. Book of Matt first published in 2013, demonstrates that the truth is far more complicated.
