Publisher's Synopsis
For more than two decades, Vanity Fair has published Dominick Dunne's brilliant, revelatory chronicles of the most famous crimes, trials, and punishments of our time. The pursuit of justice has become his passion - a passion that began during the trial of the man who murdered Dunne's daughter and who was sentenced to six and a half years and released in less than three.
Dunne's account of that trial and its shocking result is one of the many classic essays in this volume. Whether writing of Vicki Morgan's hideous death, Claus von Bulow's romp through two trials, or the media frenzy of Los Angeles in the age of O.J. Simpson, Dominick Dunne tells it honestly and tells it from his unique perspective.
