Item Tag Murder / General

By Natalie Robins and Steven M.L. Aronson. "As sheer high drama Savage Grace out-ghouls all contenders in this year's kill-and-tell sweepstakes," reads one blurb; another is from Norman Mailer. This won an Edgar for its account of the murder of Barbara Baekeland (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barbara_Daly_Baekeland) by her son, and was turned into a film starring Julianne Moore. This paperback is visibly "loved hard": advanced edgewear and creasing to covers; cracked spine repaired with duct tape; toned pages with foxing/a stain to the edges. A good price to read and recycle, though.
