"Donald Wolfe has written one of the most absorbing accounts of Marilyn's life to date."--Fred Lawrence Guiles, author of Norma Jean"Admirable ...Wolfe takes us very close indeed to the dark truth about Monroe, the Kennedys, and that lonely death in the California night."--Anthony Summers, author of Goddess: The Secret Lives of Marilyn MonroeFifty years after her death, the Marilyn Monroe mystique remains as strong and alluring as ever--as evidenced by Michelle Williams' Golden Globe-winning performance in the critically acclaimed film, My Week with Marilyn, and NBC TV's drama Smash about the creation of a Marilyn-themed Broadway musical. In The Last Days of Marilyn Monroe, author Donald H. Wolfe, a former Hollywood screenwriter and film editor, examines the tragic starlet's final weeks and offers startling evidence to support his provocative claim that Marilyn's alleged suicide was, in fact, a homicide. A powerful and intimate look into the dark side of Hollywood and John F. Kennedy's Camelot, The Last Days of Marilyn Monroe is a must-read for movie buffs, true crime aficionados, and the many still enchanted by the Monroe magic.

She was the most famous movie star in the world, famous for all the wrong reasons: her image, her sex appeal, her frailties and failings; for her love affairs, her lateness on set and her drug dependency. For decades the sensation surrounding her death has eclipsed the sensation of her life. But no one knows what events led up to that fateful night in August 1962 when Marilyn was only 36 years old. Until now. The Unremarkable Death of Marilyn Monroe, recognises a Marilyn never before seen: alone in only her dressing gown; no glitz, no glamour, no masks. Overdosed on pills, the woman behind the icon drifts back through her life and the memories of those she loved the most. Revealing a frustrated intelligence, she exposes the truth behind her legend, leading us, in real time, to the centre of her psyche, the truth of her being, and the moment of her demise.

One of the two hitmen was interviewed, recorded and transcribed. This person (hitman) has never been interviewed before and his name does not appear in other manuscripts. This is the only real story of the Marilyn Monroe murder and cover-up
