Paperback. Condición: Good. Queens Village was a picture-perfect postcard New York suburb. But in March 1927 the fa ade of respectability was stripped away to reveal an underside of greed, lust, and crime.

Resonant of the footloose Jazz Age, it made persistent headlines and led to a sensational trial. The crime spawned a 1920s Broadway play and inspired the classic noir film of the 1940s, Double Indemnity. This book assesses the entire case, from grisly slaying and shabby cover-up to sharp police work and aftermath. Moreover, it explores sociocultural questions that beg to be answered: what effect does news reportage exert upon high profile cases, and why did such a transparent crime earn such an enduring place in the popular psyche.…
