It began as a home invasion by the “Manson family” in the early hours of August 9, 1969. It ended in a killing spree that left seven people dead: actress Sharon Tate, writer Voyteck Frykowski, coffee heiress Abigail Folger, hair stylist Jay Sebring, student Steven Parent, supermarket owner Leno LaBianca, and his wife, Rosemary.
The shock waves of these crimes still reverberate today. They have also, over time, eclipsed the life of their most famous victim - a Dallas beauty queen with Hollywood aspirations. After more than a dozen small film and television roles, Sharon Tate gained international fame with the screen adaptation of Jacqueline Susann’s Valley of the Dolls, but The Fearless Vampire Killers marked a personal turning point, as she would marry its star and director, Roman Polanski. Tate now had a new dream: to raise a family - and she was only weeks away from giving birth the night Charles Manson’s followers murdered her.
Drawn from a wealth of rare material including detective reports, parole transcripts, Manson’s correspondence, and revealing new interviews with Tate’s friends and costars as well as surviving relatives of the murder victims, Sharon Tate and the Manson Murders gives a vital new perspective on one of the most notorious massacres of the 20th century.

I have read 4 or 5 books on this topic and this, by far is the most thorough, thought provoking and emotiontendering of the hem all. a must read if you have an interest in this subject.
The new authority on this sensational story

Charles Manson is that unknowable element, the perverted instigator who pushed members of his "family" into carrying out the killings. King does his best to explore Manson's sick outlook on life and people, but we are left with the unsatisfying conclusion that Manson is a broken human being who should never be allowed back into society.
As to the members of the "Manson family", we can only shake our heads. They may have been young and drug-addled but this does little to illuminate their blind obedience to Manson's orders. We can only conclude that water seeks its own level.

Although much of the material outlining the crimes and the pursuit of justice was very similar to accounts by other authors, there is a wealth of information about the short life of Sharon Tate and the others that was much more interesting and illuminating than I would have imagined. King should be commended for the even-handed and non-sensationalistic description of the life & times of Tate. He reminds the reader of all the sordid gossip and distortions that appeared in the mass media at the time of the killings, but without relishing in it or seeming to exploit.
I found myself liking Sharon Tate and even felt compelled to watch most of her films; which was mostly worth it ! But the most impressive thing that I noticed in listening to King’s book is that I
“felt” the murders more intimately and experienced genuine anger that they were attacked so savagely and so profoundly disrespected. When listening to the chapters that described the brutality — which I’ve read or heard about on dozens of occasions — for the first time I gritted my teeth and fleetingly imagined morbid things that no one wants to remember. These feelings were a product of King’s research and narrative skills and a powerful reminder that humanized violence is violence ten-fold. This reminder alone made this Audiobook well worth my time.
