The Debutante

In "The Debutante," award-winning journalist Jon Ronson investigates the enigmatic life of Carol Howe, a former Tulsa debutante whose poor choices led her to become a key figure in one of America's most horrific crimes. As an undercover informant, she had insider knowledge of Oklahoma's neo-Nazi scene just before the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing. Through court tapes, diary entries, and captivating interviews, Ronson seeks to unravel Carol's complex motivations and the impact of her actions on a national tragedy. The audiobook culminates in a revealing epilogue, where new insights from those close to Carol shed light on her life after she vanished under an assumed identity.
