In Debi Thomas What Really Happened, Mitchell uncovers the truth about Debi's big losses in the 1988 Olympics up to how her medical career ended up failing in 2014. The author is stunned to learn that Debi Thomas felt she was not meant to win the gold in the 1988 Olympics in Calgary. Moreover, Mitchell uncovers extensive research on why Debi, who openly dared to Question Authority seemingly at her own peril, incurred many of her losses and how. Mitchell, described as one of the best writers on character building, has given us her best characterizations of Jamie, an unemployed coal miner who is abusive to Debi Thomas. Mitchell, is unwilling to hold anything back, when Jamie Looney aims a gun to the retired skater's head.
Carol Denise Mitchell is sensitive and authentic on the topic of what happened to her friend, Olympic champion, Debra Janine Thomas. Her goal is for readers to walk away from the book feeling that it was Debi telling her own story. In a shocking scene when Debi's fiancé, Jamie Looney puts a gun to Debi's head, Mitchell is mindful of Debi's potential state-of-mind in not being able to tell her own story. Mitchell wants the name, Debra Janine Thomas to be inducted into the archives of great fame. Debi Thomas should be proud of this great writing effort. The book will do the superstar, no harm!
