Lee Israel did a one-woman investigation into the life and unsolved death of celebrity columnist Dorothy Kilgallen, and found some extremely interesting bits of information. Was her death murder? Who was the "Out of Towner,"? The only family member who would cooperate with her was Kilgallen's younger son, and that was because he was so small when she died that he wanted to know more about his mother. Kilgallen's father, sisters and other children were still alive at the writing of this book, but declined to participate. Dorothy Kilgallen was known for her appearances on What's My Line? television show and for a series of newspaper columns, investigating the JFK assassination. Did she pay the ultimate price for too close to the truth?
