Description
In this true crime reprint, Jonathan Goodman focuses his masterful detective skills on a criminal case that has inspired John O'Hara's Butterfield 8, which became a major feature film. His account of the international scandal and media brouhaha surround "this mystery with the wonderful name"--the inexplicable death of young and beautiful Starr Faithfull in 1931--provides an authentic tale of the Jazz Age.
