Remember the Time

Meer over het boek

A compelling memoir detailing the life of Michael Jackson in seclusion, as recounted by his bodyguards during his final days, offers a candid look at the challenges he faced. Hounded by tabloid media and driven from his sanctuary, Neverland, Jackson spent his last years moving from city to city with his three children, attempting to escape a relentless world. His personal security team, Bill Whitfield, a former cop, and Javon Beard, a rookie, were dedicated to protecting him. Stationed nearly 24/7, they witnessed everything that transpired, making them the only ones who know what 60 million fans still want to understand: the truth about the King of Pop. With a desire to reveal who Jackson truly was, Whitfield and Beard provide a definitive first-person account of his last years, detailing the extreme measures taken to protect him and his family, the financial struggles they faced, and the moments of happiness amid stress. They highlight Jackson's special bond with his fans and the tragic events leading to his ill-fated comeback, This Is It. This memoir dismantles tabloid myths, restoring Michael Jackson's humanity and presenting the story of a man striving for a normal life under extraordinary circumstances.
