William J. Mann: Black Dahlia

One of the most enduring mysteries in crime history is the horrible murder of Elizabeth Short. The Black Dhalia case has been told over and over again, including by Paul Holes and me on Buried Bones. But author William J. Mann has taken a different angle...and I really like it. He's written a deeply researched, victim-forward book about Elizabeth: her life, her struggles and her death. But his focus is right where it's supposed to be: on her. William tells me about his new book, Black Dahlia: Murder, Monsters, and Madness in Midcentury Hollywood.
