Tinseltown By: William J. Mann

I've long been fascinated by the William Desmond Taylor murder case, and this is a fantastic addition to to lore surrounding that unsolved case.  Mann mages to make a very compelling case as to who actually committed the 102 year old murder, and at the same time, ties it neatly into the rise of Hollywood, the studio system, scandal mongering, and early cancel culture!  An extremely deeply researched book, that reads like a novel.  A perfect read for any true crime buffs and/or Hollywood history buffs.
