In a story familiar to viewers of HBO's documentary series The Jinx, eccentric millionaire Robert Durst was believed to have killed and dismembered three people, including his first wife, Kathy Durst, but continually escaped prosecution owing to uncanny circumstances and blind luck. Tenacious and single-minded, former Westchester County, NY, district attorney Pirro hounded Durst for more than a decade, seeking justice for the victims' families. Here, Pirro details the process of building a case against Durst while navigating the dynamics of a career in a predominantly male field. Pirro is undeterred by her male colleagues' insensitivity and misogynistic attitudes and makes it her purpose to prove Durst's guilt. The author's narration is outstanding and delivered with passion and energy. She presents an emotionally charged insider's look at a high-profile, intriguing criminal case.
VERDICT Will be sure to please true crime aficionados and Jinx fans. ["True crime readers, especially those who are aware of Durst, will read this book with fascination": LJ Xpress Reviews 12/18/15 review of the Gallery hc.]
