Can't put this one down........

Absolutely wonderful! I first read it in 1978, and have reread it at least a dozen times. (Something I rarely do) Well-written and constructed, and just as riveting as Helter Skelter. Five stars for Mr. Bugliosi!!

Vince's Book

I just started reading this book and so far I haven't been able to put it down just like all his rest so he has not disappointed me there. I just read And The Sea Will Tell and that was a fabulous book also. The dealer I got this book from was great, I got the book in record time. I would recommend reading this book if you enjoy true crime and legal stuff

"Just the facts, ma'am"

My admiration for Mr. Bugliosi's work (both as a district attorney and a co-author) is boundless. I inhaled "Helter Skelter" when it came out and stumbled across this in a used book stack at the local library. Flipping to the ISBN page, I noted that it was published in 1978 and thought perhaps it might be a little dated. Not so! It is a compelling read on many levels and the other reviews have it nailed as being an excellent way to spend one's reading time. I would only add that the prose style (particularly in part one), while colorful and descriptive, reminded me of the narrative parts of the old Dragnet radio shows -- and that ain't a bad thing at all. Can't say enough nice things about this book except that I would also like to have known what ultimately happened to the characters.

Educational and Gripping

I have always been fascinated with the law, and this book goes into everything about how a murder trial is supposed to go. He gives you a very good lecture on the law and how it is applied, and surrounds it with a stunningly gripping narrative. It is impossible to put down, I read it in one sitting.

"Till Death Do Us Part"

A fantastic book! Though well 20 years old it still holds up. Mr. Bugliosi writes as he tried this true life case: to the point and only the facts. From the first murder all the way through to the People V. Palliko-Stockton trial. You are taken both in front of and behind the scenes of an actual murder investigation/trail. We are given excepts of actual transcripts and interviews. I learned a lot about the legal system from this book. For those of you who think that non-fiction can't be as exciting as fiction: You are wrong! All the elements are here from a classic Holywood murder mystery: Greed, lust, betrayal. The only draw back is that since the book is 20 years old you don't have an updated epilogue to what happened to the people in the book. Still, it is well worth reading.
