Justice

by Dominick Dunne

I've read a few of his novels, great gossipy human dramas, perfect for the beach or lawn chair. And I thought I'd read a few of his Vanity Fair pieces, but perhaps it was only parts of them. 
This book is a collection of various crime stories published in Vanity Fair over the years, from all the high-profile trials he's covered. O.J. is there, and Von Bulow, and the Menendez brothers. 

The book has murder, conspiracy, greed and lies - and sex. Should have ben a great read but it was only so-so.  
I'm of a fearsome mind to throw my arms around every living librarian that crosses my path, on behalf of the souls they never knew they saved.
