A riveting blend of true crime and coming-of-age memoirThe Stranger Beside Me meets Prepthat presents an intimate and thought-provoking portrait of girlhood within Manhattan's exclusive private-school scene in the early 1990s, and a thoughtful meditation on adolescent obsession and the vulnerability of youth.
Piper Weiss was fourteen years old when her middle-aged tennis coach, Gary Wilensky, one of New York City's most prestigious private instructors, attempted to kidnap one of his teenage students. In the aftermath, authorities discovered that this well-known figure among the Upper East Side tennis crowd was actually a frightening child predator who had built a secret torture chambera Cabin of Horrorsin his secluded rental in the Adirondacks.
Before the shocking scandal broke, Piper had been thrilled to be one of Gary's Girls. Grandpa Gary, as he was known among his students, was different from other adultshe treated Piper like a grown-up, taking her to dinners; engaging in long, intimate conversations; and sending her special valentines. When reporters swarmed her private community, Piper learned that her mentor was a predator with a sordid history of child stalking and sexual fetish. But why did she still feel protective of Gary, and why was she disappointed that he hadn't chosen her?
Now, twenty years later, Piper examines the event as both a teenage eyewitness and a dispassionate investigative reporter, hoping to understand and exorcise the childhood memories that haunt her to this day. Combining research, interviews, and personal records, You All Grow Up and Leave Me explores the psychological manipulation of child predatorstheir ability to charm their way into seemingly protected worldsand the far-reaching effects their actions have on those who trust them most.
