In mesmerizing prose, Black Dahlia, Red Rose is a panorama of 1940s Hollywood, a definitive account of one of the biggest unsolved murders of American legal history.

I listened to this book on the Libby app. I liked this book. I I liked the way this book was written. I felt like I was reading a 1940s true crime novel. I’ve heard of this case because there’s a band called The Black Dahlia Murder and there’s a song called Black Dahlia by the band Hollywood Undead but I didn’t know anything about this case before I started reading this book. It’s really sad what happened to this woman. She was a beautiful woman. Why would anyone want to kill her? After I finished this book, I decided to go look at the autopsy photos of her online and it was graphic. I had a hard time sleeping last night after I saw the pictures. What’s sad about this case is that it will never be solved because too much time has passed. I would recommend this book if you don’t know anything about the case.
