London: Hamish Hamilton, Ltd, 1988. Pulitzer Prize winner Teresa Carpenter has brilliantly reconstructed one of the most fascinating murder investigations in years - one which threads its way through many levels of Boston Society. Dark secrets of two families are uncovered. We learn how a distinguished professor becomes a driven pursuer of the prostitute he has fallen in love with and how a sweet girl from a decent background is lured into the netherworld of Boston's notorious Combat Zone. The murder of Robin Benedict leads to the arrest of the iminent anatomist Dr. William Henry James Douglas, who it is learned, has been embezzling funds from his labratory at Tufts University to support his costly entanglement with Benedict. A section of photographs supplied. Very pale foxing to outer edge. Price-intact photo dust jacket. A sound, respectable copy. A riviting read.. ISBN: 0-241-12775-0. First Edition, First Printing. Hard Cover. Very Good/Very Good. Boston + Boston Murder Case + Dr William Henry James Douglas + Robin Benedict + Boston Combat Zone + Tufts University + Prostitution + Boston Murder Investigation + Boston Crime + Murder + Massachussetts + Case Studies. Catalogs: True Crime.
