Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New York Times Best Seller! Since Marilyn Monroe died among suspicious circumstances on the night of August 4, 1962, there have been queries and theories, allegations and investigations, but no definitive evidence about precisely what happened and who was involved . . . until now. In The Murder of Marilyn Monroe: Case Closed, renowned MM expert Jay Margolis and New York Times bestselling author Richard Buskin finally lay to rest more than fifty years of wild speculation and misguided assertions by actually naming, for the first time, the screen goddess’s killer while utilizing the testimony of eye-witnesses to exactly what took place inside her house on Fifth Helena Drive in Los Angeles’ Brentwood neighborhood. Implicating Bobby Kennedy in the commission of Marilyn’s murder, this is the first book to name the LAPD officers who accompanied the US Attorney General to her home, provide details about how the Kennedys used bribes to silence one of the ambulance drivers, and specify how the subsequent cover-up was aided by a noted pathologist’s outrageous lies. This blockbuster volume blows the lid off the world’s most notorious and talked-about celebrity death, and in the process exposes not only the truth about an iconic star’s tragic final hours, but also how a legendary American politician used powerful resources to protect what many still perceive as his untarnished reputation. Skyhorse Publishing, as well as our Arcade imprint, are proud to publish a broad range of books for readers interested in history--books about World War II, the Third Reich, Hitler and his henchmen, the JFK assassination, conspiracies, the American Civil War, the American Revolution, gladiators, Vikings, ancient Rome, medieval times, the old West, and much more.

Book excerpt: It is one of the greatest mysteries of the twentieth century. How did Marilyn Monroe die? Although no pills were found in her stomach during the autopsy, it was still documented in the Los Angeles coroner's report that she had swallowed sixty-four sleeping pills prior to her demise. In Marilyn Monroe: A Case for Murder, biographer Jay Margolis presents the most thorough investigation of Marilyn Monroe's death to date and shares how he reached the definitive conclusion that she was murdered. Margolis meticulously dissects the events leading up to her death, revealing a major conspiracy and countless lies. In an exclusive interview with actress Jane Russell three months before her death, he reveals Russell's belief that Monroe was murdered and points the finger at the man she held responsible. While examining the actions of Peter Lawford, Bobby Kennedy, and Monroe's psychiatrist, Dr. Ralph Greenson, Margolis establishes a timeline of her last day alive that leads to shocking revelations. In August 1962, Marilyn Monroe's lifeless body was found on her bed, leaving all to wonder what really happened to the beautiful young starlet. Marilyn Monroe: A Case for Murder provides a fascinating examination of one of the most puzzling deaths of all time.

Tough, streetwise (and let's be truthful here - tightwad) ex-cop PI Grace Smith is hired to track down the murderer... But this isn't LA. It's a seedy run down English resort and Marilyn Monroe is a decidedly dead donkey.Grace is inexorably drawn into a web of greed, betrayal and murder, whilst she gamely sticks to her mantra of 'What's mine is mine, and what's yours is mine if I can blag it'. As the tentacles of the case stretch out to touch on murders in the past, Grace acquires a donkey man with a secret, a potential boyfriend with a wife, a cop with a grudge, and a race against time to prevent the killer claiming another victim herself.An entertaining broth of a book, packed with comic set pieces and cracking one-liners. - The TimesFunny and engaging.

This book was released on 2018-05-04 with total page 640 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perhaps no one's death has stirred more interest, controversy, and theories than Marilyn Monroe's August 4 of 1962. In Murder Orthodoxies, author Donald R. McGovern analyzes and examines the many theories that Monroe was murdered by a host of curious characters-from the middle Kennedy brothers to brutal gangsters to aliens. McGovern separates fact from fiction and theory from outlandish rumor. He addresses and debunks the usual allegations related to Monroe's death, the secrets recorded in her little red diary, her scheduled whistle-blowing press conference, the murder plots by organized crime and the brothers Kennedy, and the fatal injection of drugs, along with many others. In Murder Orthodoxies, McGovern restores logic and sanity to the investigation of Monroe's death. His thesis is based upon the premise that the engines of conspiracies are started and fueled by opinion, not by facts. His credible conclusions are based on logic, science, toxicology, and forensic evidence.

Book excerpt: ‘Bobby called. He’s coming to California. He wants to see me.’ Drawing on secret police files, Marilyn Monroe's private diary and never before published first-hand testimony, this book proves that Robert Kennedy was directly responsible for her death. It details the legendary star's tumultuous personal involvement with him and his brother, President John Kennedy, and how they sought to silence her. The new evidence and testimony is provided by Mike Rothmiller who, as a detective of the Organized Crime Intelligence Division (OCID) of the LAPD, had direct personal access to hundreds of secret LAPD files on exactly what happened at Marilyn Monroe’s Californian home on August 5, 1962. With his training and investigator’s knowledge, Rothmiller used that secret information to get to the heart of the matter, to the people who were there the night Marilyn died – two of whom played major roles in the cover-up – and the wider conspiracy to protect the Kennedys at all costs. There will be those with doubts, but to them, the lawman – who directed international intelligence operations targeting organized crime – says the printed, forensic and oral evidence are totally convincing. He insists: ‘If I presented my evidence in any court of law, I’d get a conviction.’

Book excerpt: I am told that the first two names I recognized as a child were President Eisenhower and Marilyn Monroe. Hopefully, for my parents' sake, this was after I understood who Mama and Daddy were. To be truthful, I'm not at all certain. By the time the newsman interrupted my cartoons on Sunday morning, August 5, 1962, to tell me that Marilyn Monroe had been found dead of an overdose at the age of 36, she had become such a natural part of my daily life that I could not quite grasp the concept of a world where she was not still out there going about her surely incredible life. To even begin to attempt to understand that someone as big as Marilyn Monroe could actually die threw my seven-year-old brain into serious philosophical doubt. I kept a close watch on my parents, my teachers, even my close friends. The way I saw it, if Marilyn Monroe could die, everyone was up for grabs. -author David Marshall, from the introduction to The DD Group: An Online Investigation Into the Death of Marilyn Monroe

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The shocking truth behind the death of an American icon—and the conspiracies that kept it secret for decades—in “the best autopsy of Marilyn Monroe” (Cyril H. Wecht, MD, JD) In her tragically short life, Marilyn Monroe embodied American womanhood, innocence, and lust—both as a Hollywood star and in the shadows of her tormented soul. But when she was found naked and dead on the morning of August 5, 1962, she became the subject of a mystery that has perplexed the world for generations. Was her death an accident? Suicide? Or murder? In Crypt 33, two Los Angeles private investigators recount the startling evidence that may solve the case once and for all, finally revealing the truth about: Monroe’s affairs with JFK and Robert Kennedy . . . The identity of the friend who allowed Monroe’s killers into her home . . . Evidence of the deadly drugs and how they were administered to the starlet . . . The rumors of an assassination plot masterminded by the Cosa Nostra and high-ranking government officials . . . The tangled web of wiretaps in Monroe’s home—and what happened to the audio tape recording of her murder . . . Now, at last, the truth of Monroe’s shocking death can be told in a book that “makes the hardest case yet that Marilyn was the victim of foul play” (Kirkus Reviews). “Well and sympathetically told . . . Speriglio and Gregory are fluent, convincing writers.” —Publishers Weekly

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Does anyone really want to know what caused the death of Marilyn Monroe?” The long afterlife of cultural and cinematic icon Marilyn Monroe has created a tragic paradox. In this post-truth era, Monroe has been recast as a victim of powerful men, a virtual simulacrum of desire and death. The sensational narrative constantly regurgitated in media reports, books, and documentaries rests on a stacked deck of hearsay and outright lies. Conspiracy theories offer a simplistic, yet tantalizing, framing device for the abundance of information hurled at us by global mass media. In an explosive takedown, Gary Vitacco - Robles – author of Icon: The Life Times, and Films of Marilyn Monroe – unpacks the falsehoods perpetuated by a rogues’ gallery of shadowy opportunists. With surgical skill, he separates fact from fiction, probable theory from outlandish rumor. As a practicing psychotherapist, the author is uniquely qualified to re-examine Monroe’s lifelong struggle with mental illness and spiraling addiction to medications liberally prescribed by successive doctors. In this definitive study - based upon decades of research, legitimate sources, the never-before-released Los Angeles District Attorney’s investigation, and police investigations from 1962, 1975, and 1985 - the reader is presented with facts to finally learn the truth about how Monroe died and who was responsible.

Book excerpt: In the summer of 1962 rumors of a Marilyn Monroe and Robert Kennedy affair where spreading through Hollywood. When Marilyn asked her friend and masseur if he had heard the rumors he replied "all Hollywood was talking about it." On the day before Monroe's death those rumors finally made their way into print in a Dorothy Kilgallen gossip column. In that column Kilgallen also mentioned a scandalous photo of Marilyn. The weekend before her death, Marilyn and her companion, Pat Kennedy Lawford were visiting Frank Sinatra's Cal-Neva lodge. According to photographer William Woodfield, a photo of Marilyn was taken that weekend that included Chicago mob boss Sam Giancana. FBI agent, Bill Roemer confirms Giancana was there. According to Shirley MacLaine, Hollywood was entertaining another MM/RFK rumor during that fateful summer. The basis of this one was that Robert Kennedy and the Justice Department were going after the powerful media conglomerate MCA on behalf of Monroe. At the end of 1961 a grand jury was convened in Los Angeles to determine if MCA was involved in a conspiracy to monopolize the entertainment industry. Civil and criminal charges were expected. This was precisely the same time period that Marilyn first met RFK and also when she fired MCA as the talent agency that represented her. In over 50 years and 100's of books about Marilyn Monroe's life and death, the connection between these interrelated circumstances are barely even mentioned. This book sets out to change that. In the weeks and days before her death, Monroe was reaching out and trying to contact Robert Kennedy. This book attempts to show that it had nothing to do with an actual affair between the two but it had everything to do with the mistaken gossip that there was an affair. Circumstances in the MCA case had deteriorated to a point where Marilyn had to feel she was going to be blamed for what was happening in Hollywood. In mid July 1962, the Justice Department announced it was going forward with it's case against MCA. MCA's talent agency represented between 60 and 70 percent of Hollywood's best talent. Just two weeks before Monroe's death the company was forced to dissolve their agency, leaving these actors without representation. Given the rumors that were circulating, I'm sure Marilyn wanted to set the record straight that she had nothing to do with this case. The men that ran MCA were powerful enough to make or break careers. It was also well known that both the president and chairman of the board of MCA were mob connected. The weekend of her death Monroe was trying to contact her old publicist Rupert Allan, and also George Barris, who was working on her biography. Isn't it likely she wanted to tell her side of the story about the Cal-Neva photo and the MCA case. After her death this was turned into a press conference where she was going to expose her affairs with the President and Attorney General. While that was complete nonsense it was built upon a kernel of truth. This book attempts for the first time to separate the kernels of truth from the countless lies, misrepresentations, misinterpretations and misinformation that has circulated for over a half a century. It does this by the construction of three new scenarios that incorporate new evidence and analysis into Monroe's death. A scenario is constructed for each possibility; suicide, accident and murder, allowing the reader to reach their own conclusions. Marilyn Monroe died from an oral ingestion of drugs, not from an injection, suppository or enema. If the drugs were dissolved in a liquid and given to Monroe by someone she trusted, it could still be murder. The final chapter of this book names a person who had the means, motive and opportunity to kill Marilyn Monroe. It's a name that's sure to surprise you. This person is still alive and it's high time she finally revealed what happened on August 4, 1962.

Book excerpt: If there had been no cover-up of Robert Kennedy’s complicity in the murder of Marilyn Monroe in 1962 and he had been prosecuted based on compelling evidence at the time, the assassination of JFK by Bobby’s enemies would not have happened—changing the course of history and preventing the murder of media icon Dorothy Kilgallen. In a breakthrough book that is sure to be relevant for years to come, bestselling author (The Reporter Who Knew Too Much) and distinguished historian Mark Shaw investigates the connection between the mysterious deaths of motion picture screen siren Marilyn Monroe, President John F. Kennedy, and What’s My Line? TV star and crack investigative reporter Dorothy Kilgallen. A former noted criminal defense attorney and network legal analyst, Shaw provides an illuminating perspective as to how Robert Kennedy’s abuse of power during the early 1960s resulted in the murders of Marilyn, JFK, and Dorothy. Praise for Mark Shaw Books The Reporter Who Knew Too Much “The compelling story of Dorothy Kilgallen, the celebrated journalist once called ‘the most powerful female voice in America.’” —Nick Pileggi, author of Wiseguy and Casino Denial of Justice “A worthy sequel to the mysterious whodunit that snuffed out the brave reporter, Denial of Justice is a true crime thriller that seeks to undo the label attached to Ms. Kilgallen’s untimely demise. Mark Shaw has done an admirable and exemplary job in his work. Do not miss!” —San Francisco Book Review

Book excerpt: Published for the fiftieth anniversary of her tragic death, this definitive account dispels the rumors and sets the record straight on her last two years Marilyn Monroe passed away at the age of thirty-six under circumstances that have remained mysterious to this day. Marilyn Monroe: The Final Years separates the myths and rumors from the facts as Keith Badman takes readers through the concluding months of 1960 to that fateful day in August 1962. In this extraordinary book—the product of five years of exhaustive research—the author is both biographer and detective: Badman uncovers long-lost or previously unseen personal records, exclusive interviews, and eyewitness accounts that illuminate the final chapter of Marilyn's life as she navigates weight gain, drug use, an dpersonal turmoil, along with drama on the set of the ill-fated movie Something's Got to Give. Badman dispels popular beliefs, such as her supposed affairs with John and Bobby Kennedy. (Monroe only had a one-night stand with the president at Bing Crosby's house, and never with Bobby.) Readers learn the long-concealed identity of her biological father, who refused Marilyn's attempt to contact him in 1951—and was then repaid with her apathy ten years later when he attempted to contact her. The author also reveals the details of her famous "last Sitting" with photographer Bert Stern (which was not her last photo shoot) and describes the horror she endured after being tricked into being institutionalized at the Payne-Whitney Psychiatric Clinic, from which ex-husband Joe DiMaggio had to pull strings to secure her release. Perhaps most shockingly, we learn of the regrettable incident in which a drunken Monroe was sexually exploited by mobsters at a Lake Tahoe hotel co-owned by Frank Sinatra. Finally contrary to the salacious rumors that Marilyn was suicidal or the victim of a murder and cover-up, Badman discloses new information about her final days alive and reveals, in unequivocal detail, evidence that indicates Monroe's death was accidental. Above it all, Badman pays homage to Monroe by rescuing her final months from the realm of wild and sensationalized allegations popularized by those who sought to gain from them. Marilyn Monroe: The Final Years sheds new light on an immortal movie legend.
