The grisly 1947 murder of aspiring starlet & nightclub habitue ELIZABETH SHORT, known even before her death as the "BLACK DAHLIA" has over the decades transmogrified from LA'S CRIME OF THE CENTURY to an almost mythical symbol of Hollywood Babylon/film noir glamour-cum-sordidness. SEVERED, the first true-crime book published on the strangest of all "unsolved" murders in the annals of modern crime, offers the documented solution to the case as endorsed by law enforcement & forensic science experts. It is appropriate that hard-boiled, Hollywood-born author John Gilmore, whose father was an LAPD officer at the time of the murder, should be the one to unravel the multilayered mystery of this archetypal Los Angeles slaying, having begun his painstaking investigations into the case over thirty-five years ago (as of 1994 release date)
