Inhaltsangabe

The investigative biography of Michael Jackson's final years: "A tale of family, fame, lost childhood, and startling accusations never heard before" (ABC Nightline).

When Michael Jackson died on June 25, 2009, millions of fans around the world were shocked. But the outpouring of emotion that followed his loss was bittersweet. Dogged by scandal for years and undone by financial mismanagement, Jackson had become untouchable in many quarters.

Untouchable pulls back the curtain Jackson's public person to introduce a man who, despite his immense fame, spent his entire life utterly alone; who, in the wake of a criminal trial that left him briefly hospitalized, abandoned Neverland to wander the globe before making one final—and fatal—attempt to recover his wealth and reputation. The Jackson that emerges in these pages is both naïve and cunning, a devoted father whose parenting became an international scandal, a shrewd businessman whose failures nearly brought down a megacorporation, and an inveterate narcissist who craved a quiet, normal life.

Randall Sullivan delivers never-before-reported information about Jackson's business dealings, his relationship with his family, and the pedophilia allegations that derailed his life and mar his legacy today, as well as the suspicious nature of his death. Based on exclusive access to Jackson's inner circle, Untouchable is an intimate, unflinching portrait of the man who continues to reign as the King of Pop.

"A dishy Michael Jackson biography that makes the exhaustively covered King of Pop fascinating all over again." —People
