Publisher's Summary

The gruesome murder of hopeful starlet Elizabeth Short, in the noir-tinged Los Angeles of 1947, has a permanent place in American lore as one of the most inscrutable of true-crime mysteries. Now, Piu Eatwell - relentless legal sleuth and atmospheric stylist - cracks the case after 70 years. With recently unredacted FBI files, newly released sections of the LAPD files, and explosive new interviews, Eatwell has unprecedented access to primary evidence and a persuasive culprit. She layers her findings into a gritty, cinematic retelling of the case from the corrupt LAPD and the take-no-prisoners press to the seedy underworld of would-be actresses and the men who preyed on them. In mesmerizing prose, Black Dahlia, Red Rose is a panorama of 1940s Hollywood, a definitive account of one of the biggest unsolved murders of American legal history.

Excellent

All the information is well organized and cross-referenced. The author did an excellent job researching this case and I support her conclusion. "Why did he call me Elizabeth?" was particularly chilling.
I have a strong interest in psychology and listening to the early instance of criminal profiling from Dr. de River was on par with John Douglas. De River was under-appreciated and ahead of his time.
I have this book in paperback but I much prefer this version. I think the narrator was a good choice as his voice and cadence fit well with the dark theme of the book.

Black Dahlia

Very informative, pinpoints murder scene and likely suspect as well as reason for cover up.
