Kathy GiIIeran is a twenty-year veteran poIice officer of the city of Ithaca, New York. Her son, Aeryn, is a researcher at the United Nations lndustriaI DeveIopment Organization (UNIDO) in Vienna, Austria. On October 31, 2007, Kathy receives a call from UNIDO with distressing news: Aeryn faiIed to show up for work for two days in a row, and his colIeagues are concerned for his weIl-being. Kathy immediateIy flies overseas to find him.
Upon arriving in Vienna, however, Kathy Iearns that the poIice have no interest in an investigation. Detectives tell her that Aeryn had been at the Kaiserbrundl - and exclusive men's sauna in downtown Vienna - on the evening of October 29th, when he suffered an extreme and sudden emotional breakdown, fled the sauna wearing onIy a towel, ran naked through the city streets, and jumped to his death into the Danube CanaI. The poIice cIaim Aeryn committed "spontaneous" suicide.
Yet to Kathy, this explanation makes no sense, especialIy because nobody had been recovered. Alone, short of funds, yet with abundant resilience, she initiates her own painful quest for the truth - aIl the while encountering overt police intimidation, abuse, and homophobia. But as she hones her instincts as a mother and skiIIs as a cop, Kathy ultimateIy discovers her own strength to keep fighting for her son - even to this day. |
