{"product_id":"book-jd79","title":"The Akkra Case","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Akkra Case\u003c\/em\u003e drops us into a civilized future where murder has almost vanished-until a young woman is found dead beneath the gliding mobilways of Newyork I. With no homicide specialists left in a world that cured crime, the investigation lurches into uncharted territory, exposing social contradictions, forbidden ideologies, and a society so orderly that genuine mystery has become impossible to process. As Fedpol struggles to apply logic to an illogical act, the story explores the friction between engineered stability and the stubborn human heart.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt the center stands Margret Akkra, a determined thirteen-year-old who refuses to accept official limits. When professionals falter, she pursues answers through courage, intuition, and a child's unwillingness to let injustice stand. What she uncovers reshapes the entire case-and reveals how dangerously simple the truth can be.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMiriam Allen De Ford, a prolific writer across science fiction, crime, and social commentary, brought a sharply analytical mind to her work. A longtime contributor to magazines such as \u003cem\u003eIf\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eGalaxy\u003c\/em\u003e, and \u003cem\u003eThe Magazine of Fantasy \u0026amp; Science Fiction\u003c\/em\u003e, she often infused futuristic tales with themes grounded in psychology, sociology, and human behavior. De Ford wrote for more than five decades, blending speculation with keen moral insight.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHer background as a journalist and activist sharpened her focus on cultural trends, political anxieties, and the ways systems shape individual lives. Whether writing mystery, SF, or true crime, she consistently probed power, justice, and the fragile line between order and chaos-qualities that make \u003cem\u003eThe Akkra Case\u003c\/em\u003e a standout example of her thoughtful work.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"INAudio","offers":[{"title":"Audiobook","offer_id":49402617889072,"sku":"BDjd79","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0879\/2784\/9264\/files\/jd79-Square-cover.jpg?v=1769776853","url":"https:\/\/downpour.com\/products\/book-jd79","provider":"Downpour","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
