Who killed the Black Dahlia? (Paperback)

Customer Review

For all fans of this legendary criminal case, who better than Stéphane Bourgoin, aware of criminal psychology for years to deliver us the truth about the murder of Elizabeth Short in 1947.
I liked the tone and uncompromising live to recount all the events, not "Hollywood glamor" on Steve Hodel, he was tired of all these "true crimes" romanticized the "this is my father, my mother, my sister ... etc that killed "
Stéphane Bourgoin only confirmed what the writer John Gilmore, in his book "severed" had made: namely the likely identity of the killer of Elizabeth Short ", for cons, it gives us insight more accurate in light of another famous unsolved case.
I think the first investigators, despite the lack of means and infancy of criminal psychology, had a clear idea of ​​the kind of person they were looking for and just the amazing opportunity that could benefit the culprit is probably due to this supposed lack of means ... and also - as underlined Stéphane Bourgoin - the "confiscation" of the media survey, which only served to complicate the work of the investigators, though well underway.
yes we would have liked Stéphane Bourgoin speaks more of Elizabeth Short and resolve some unanswered questions according to testimonies collected by journalists of the time: why is she so interested in the matter Suzanne Degnan? (News story in the 40s in Chicago)? the same time a summary of newspaper clippings chronicling the investigation would have been interesting, in my opinion, the best "evidence" of this case.
The garish yellow cover and paper texture are a good idea, they recall the "pulp magazines of the 1940s" graphics "cheap" paper "cheap" one can be disgusted by the pictures of the environment, but they are in line this book: a universe and sordid characters, this case is not a walk in fairyland.
