An account of the OJ Simpson trial; written with a sharp eye and a quick tongue. Dominick Dunne puts it all together into a non-stop reading.

Wow! I loved this book! To be honest, I didn't read anything about the book, so I didn't even realize it was going to be about the OJ trial. Once I realized it, I very nearly yanked the tape out - that trial already took enough of my time years ago LOL. But Dunne's style caught my interested, so I kept listening... and listening... then WHAP!! The ending hit me like a ton of bricks. Out of nowhere! There was no way I saw that twist coming.

Great book. Pulls you into the OJ trial. You don't realize until the end that the book is fiction.
