Synopsis

A high school quarterback and his family are embroiled in an abhorrent crime and its cover-up—a bold new novel that confronts American hero-worship and its irreversible consequences.

HUMPTY-DUMPTY SAT ON A WALL . . .
Darius Rodgers is the king of Steubenville, Ohio. Invincible, untouchable: a god among men. He’s the quarterback about to lead his team to their first State Championship in twenty years. And now his mom and his twin sister, Beatriz and Anna, are back from exile in Rio, trying to sew the estranged family back together. Nothing can spoil his glory: Not love. Not loyalty. Nothing. Until he ushers in his own doom.

HUMPTY-DUMPTY HAD A GREAT FALL . . .
Anna doesn’t even want to be back in Stupidville, but she decides to make the most of it. She’s here to live free and have fun! But her secret romance with Darius’s best friend, Fleet, and the rumors it spawns make the first domino fall in a series of social detonations in one small town’s moral apocalypse: crime, conspiracy, silence, betrayal, hackers, incels, dereliction!

How the hell do you tell a story like this?

Hilarious, bold, and explosively original, Harold Rogers’s Humpty Dumpty is a reckoning with American rot, generational failure, and the brutal question at the heart of every tragedy: Why didn’t you do anything?
