Description
Dorothy Kilgallen, a pioneering journalist and TV star, was found dead under mysterious circumstances. Her official cause of death was reported as an overdose of barbiturates combined with alcohol, but many have questioned this explanation. In "The Reporter Who Knew Too Much", Mark Shaw uncovers new evidence and presents a compelling case that Kilgallen's death was not what it seemed. Through previously unseen eyewitness interviews and secret government documents, Shaw builds a "whodunit" murder mystery featuring suspects including Frank Sinatra, J. Edgar Hoover, and Mafia Don Carlos Marcello. Meanwhile, Shaw presents Kilgallen's own investigation into the JFK assassination, shedding new light on this enduring mystery. Kilgallen was a trailblazing woman who broke down barriers in journalism before the term "glass ceiling" was even coined. Shaw's book is a remarkable tribute to her legacy, and a testament to the power of journalism to uncover the truth.
