Title : The Black Dahlia Affair - Steve Hodel - book

Summary :

On January 15, 1947, a woman's body was found cut in half in a vacant lot in Los Angeles. Twenty-two-year-old Elizabeth Short, the famous "Black Dahlia," suffered agonizingly before dying. A few days later, imitating Jack the Ripper, the killer told police, "Get me if you can." This murder, which has become a myth, will never be solved.

Until the day, fifty years later, former LA Homicide detective Steve Hodel discovers a photo of Elizabeth in a notebook belonging to her recently deceased father. What is she doing there?

Upset, he returns to his police work and, as Michael Connelly says, "a journey that intrigues and disturbs at every turn," embarks on an investigation that is "exhaustive and totally convincing. Like this book." Deeply moved, James Ellroy will later declare: "I was the one asking the questions. He was the one answering them. I was the skeptic. He was the one proving it."
