-Titulo Original : The Prince Of Paradise The True Story Of A Hotel Heir, His Seductive Wife, And A Ruthless Murder
-Fabricante :
St. Martins Griffin
-Descripcion Original:
About the Author English-born JOHN GLATT is the author of more than twenty-five books including The Lost Girls and My Sweet Angel, and has over thirty years of experience as an investigative journalist in England and America. He has appeared on television and radio programs all over the world, including Dateline NBC, Fox News, ABC’s 20/20, BBC World News, and A&E Biography. True crime reporter John Glatt tells the whole story of this twisted case of passion, perversion, and paradise lost, in Prince of Paradise. Ben Novack, Jr. was born into a life of luxury and opulence. Heir to the legendary Fontainebleau hotel, he spent his childhood surrounded by some of the worlds biggest stars, including Frank Sinatra and the Rat Pack, Elvis Presley, and Ann-Margret, who performed regularly at the Fontainebleaus La Ronde Room. He sat by while his parents entertained presidents and movie stars, as they reigned over Miami Beach in the ‘50s and ‘60s, and when the family business went sour he became wealthy in his own right, founding a multi-million dollar business using connections he made at the Fontainebleau. But Ben, Jr.s luxurious, celebrity-studded lifestyle would end in another hotel room a thousand miles away from the one where he grew up when police found him bound up in duct tape, beaten to death. Seven years earlier, police found Novack in an eerily similar situation when his wife Narcy duct-taped him to a chair for twenty-four hours and robbed him. Claiming it was a sex game, he never pressed charges and never followed through with a divorce. Now prosecutors claimed Narcy let the vicious killers into the room and watched as they beat her husband with dumbbells. They also suspected she was involved in the horrendous death of Novacks mother, just three months before. But it would be Narcys own daughter who implicated her to the police. Review From the provocative opening sentence (When retired police chief James Scarberry heard in July 2009 that Ben Novack Jr. had been brutally murdered, with his eyes gouged out, he was not surprised.), true-crime veteran Glatt grabs the readers attention. With a perfect amount of detail, he traces the sad life of Novack--whose father, Ben Sr., founded Miami Beachs legendary Fountainebleau Hotel--from an unhappy childhood to his death in 2009 at the age of 53. . . . This gripping account is proof that truth can be stranger--and far more disturbing--than fiction. --Publishers WeeklyOne of the finest true crime craftsmen writing today. --Harold Goldberg, VH1 How do you say juicy in French. --People Magazine on The Royal House of MonacoA real guilty Pleasure. --Entertainment Weekly on The Royal House of Monaco From the Back Cover Praise for author John Glatt: John Glatt is one of the finest true crime craftsmen writing today. --Howard Goldberg, VH1 [Glatt] certainly comes through with the goods.--Library Journal[A] true crime page turner. --East Bay Express on The Doctors WifeAuthor John Glatt goes behind the headlines and into the heart of this fascinating case. --Bookcrossing on Cradle of DeathThis is a great true crime book. --Bookreporter on Deadly American BeautyDefinitive tales of a dozen sets of twins gone bad. --Twinstuff A blockbuster. --The Globe on DepravedAn exhaustive account ...
