The Murder of Marilyn Monroe

Case Closed

De: Jay Margolis, Richard Buskin

Narrado por: Eric Jason Martin

Marilyn Monroe died under suspicious circumstances on the night of August 4, 1962. In The Murder of Marilyn Monroe: Case Closed, renowned MM expert Jay Margolis and New York Times best-selling author Richard Buskin finally lay to rest more than 50 years of wild speculation and misguided assertions by actually naming the screen goddess's killer. At the same time, they use the testimony of eyewitnesses to describe exactly what took place inside her house on Fifth Helena Drive in Los Angeles's Brentwood neighborhood.

Implicating Bobby Kennedy in the commission of Monroe's murder, this is the first book to name the LAPD officers who accompanied the attorney general to her home, provide details about how the Kennedys used bribes to silence one of the ambulance drivers, and specify how the subsequent cover-up was aided by a noted pathologist's outrageous lies. This blockbuster volume blows the lid off the world's most notorious and talked-about celebrity death, and in the process also exposes the third gunman in the pantry who delivered the fatal bullet to the back of RFK's head - and the third gunman's female accomplice who, until now, has only been known to the LAPD and the FBI as "the girl in the polka-dot dress".

Informative

This book brought to light a lot I never knew about the time like! Thank you

More about other people than Marilyn Monroe

More about other people than Marilyn Monroe. I learned about everyone's life that said they knew her . Disappointed in the content and it was hard to follow the context.

Good story

I was really excited about listening to this book but very disappointed when doing so. The narrator is horrible in my opinion, I would suggest reading it instead.

Interesting topic, clumsily written and edited

To be honest, I probably wouldn't have purchased this title, but as a selection of the Plus catalog, and looking for something to fill time before the next book, I gave it a shot. Any book with "Case Closed" is always a red flag though. The author presents a lot of intriguing information (oddly at times, contrary to his own position, which helps retrieve a bit of credibility in the project). But the overriding impression of the book is that several elements are repeated over and over, verbatim at times. Some are clearly editing gaffes. Some are seemingly from an author who has written chapters piecemeal, wanting included important elements, and then using the same passages again in later sections of the book, either forgetting on not caring about the repetition. Some good parts, nothing terribly special, but having come at no extra charge, I can't complain.

Reads like forensic files

The story was well done yet repetitive. The narrator has a good voice but a speech impediment. it became distracting throughout the book. Especially with the letter "S"
