I Know This Sounds Crazy: Buy my new book INSTANTLY

You're a click away from the surprise of the year.

It looks like this. And you’re the first to get the link.

The first time I read this novel I was one hundred pages in before I realized it wasn't a memoir written anonymously by some poor victim of our lustful, pathological super-elites. This is a scary accomplishment, this book, because it could be true but shouldn't be. Guard your soul and plunge in. — Walter Kirn

Yes, there’s a backstory.

In 2020, writing as Kayley Kling, I made I Know This Sounds Crazy the first book published on Bitcoin with its release at canonic.xyz. That edition — now a one-of-a-kind collector’s item — is still available for those looking to put their Bitcoin to good use, as should we all.

Now, for the very first time, I Know This Sounds Crazy is available in a beautiful new edition at Amazon.

I waited four long years to see if anyone else would give us a real piece of art giving Epstein and the era he defined the treatment it deserved. Here at the end of 2024, it feels like time to stop waiting.

This book was a long time in the making. Its origins go back to 1999, as I’ve written about in a few places over the years. It’s not for the faint of heart, although the darkness is shot through with some purer and sweeter moments. It captures the essence of a long and difficult spiritual journey that played out amid the great decline of the United States from its millennial peak as a beacon of violent and erotic might.

Drawn at the height of the 1990s into the looking-glass universe of Jeffrey Epstein and his associates, Kayley begins a journey of dark discovery through the fake identities, toxic lovers, and impossible assignments of the transatlantic underworld.

As the Epstein operation collapses, pulling Kayley and America down with it, the killer circuit of superyachts and private jets brings her home at last, now in hiding, to pass deeply personal judgment on a past with no escape — achingly vulnerable one moment, coldly calculating the next. Through it all Kayley lays bare the power and glamor used to betray generations of women and men — and to corrupt countless girls and boys.

Proof that each look behind the curtain has its price, I Know This Sounds Crazy tears the mask off of a world we always knew was beyond what we dared believe.

I personally believe artists and audiences alike thirst for a fresh, bold, and enduring new cultural mainstream — attuned to this moment, uncompromising in vision, and rich in spirit. This is only the beginning. Especially here and now, our attention is precious. For yours, you have my great thanks!
