Indiana-born Vivian Gordon fluttered to New York in 1920 looking for fame and fortune. Before long, the flame-haired chorus girl parlayed her youth, beauty, and ambition into more profitable means as a tough and glamorous symbol of Prohibition-era excess. She was a speakeasy owner, blackmailer, high-end escort, extortionist, racketeer, and con woman. But given her dangerously intimate associations, Vivian was also a woman who knew too much and who rightfully feared for her life.

Actual true crime is not like watching an episode of CSI. Even television true crime documentaries can skim over the sticky details. Real true crime can be unsettling for many people. However, I do my best not to leave out any details in my audiobooks. My intention isn’t to shock but rather to give the listener a glimpse into the killer’s mind. I don’t begin to think that I can understand the mind of a diabolical monster, but I can guarantee that curiosity will keep us listening and endlessly searching for answers.

Sul vocabolario è scritto che l'omicidio è la soppressione di una vita umana ad opera di un altro essere umano. Poche parole, che tuttavia nulla dicono del movente, del mezzo e del legame tra l'assassino e la sua vittima. Ogni storia di un crimine è unica, ma ci sono casi che più di altri hanno segnato un'epoca, quando la spinta ad uccidere ha tratto origine da dinamiche personali, più o meno comprensibili, più o meno folli. Odio e gelosia, profitto e piacere…, lame e veleni.
