The fullest factual account of Monroe's life and death we're likely to get * Evening Standard * Convincing evidence of a crude but effective cover-up which was designed to protect Robert Kennedy * Times Literary Supplement * Gets as near to the heart of the mystery as anyone ever will * Guardian * The most authoritative account ever written about the greatest sex symbol of them all * Woman * A remarkable performance . . .
