Synopsis

Who Killed Diana? poses tough questions about suspicious behavior and activities and conflicting testimonies. It challenges the widely held assumption that the blood of Mercedes driver Henri Paul contained alcohol at over three times the legal limit-and even the presumption that Paul was merely a Ritz security employee. It names and probes diverse and shadowy parties - both British and foreign - who had motives for wanting the famous couple eliminated as well as the means for achieving this goal and disguising it as an accident.Renowned investigative journalists Peter Hounam and Derek McAdam take the reader on a breathtaking, page-turning journey through a land of unofficial branches of secret services, professional assassins, international hitmen, "wet affairs," Psy-Ops, the Clinic, "Feather Men," remote-controlled cars, and ancient clandestine societies protecting the British establishment. Sorting through a web of traceless drugs and poisons, inexplicable caches of money, fuzzy photographs, stolen negatives, gap-filled medical reports, phantom cars of changing color, a large mysterious dog, and rivals in class and ethnic combat, they reveal a startling number of possible plots and conspiracies, all interwoven in a mystery that resembles Heisenberg's uncertainty principle even more than a John Le Carre novel. By comparing eyewitness accounts and official documents, Hounam and McAdam show how seemingly concrete debris and actual vehicles moving in traffic (on both two and four wheels) can evoke figures on a grassy knoll in Dallas, thumps heard in Brentwood, and soft metallic artifacts at Roswell more than the vectors of any routine automobile accident. Unless these anomalies and riddles are resolved by the inquiries of the French constabulary, the deaths of Diana and Dodi may become the source of a millennial conspiracy-mythology as rich, detailed, and seemingly bottomless as the assassination of American President John F. Kennedy in 1963.

About this title

From the Publisher:

synopsis
The extraordinary delay in producing an official report into the crash that killed Diana, Princess of Wales and Dodi Fayed is to many an indication that their deaths were not simply an accident. The French investigation was sketchy on details and many important factors were omitted. The authors of Who Killed Diana? question whether there was indeed a plot to murder the mother of the heir to the throne and the son of a controversial figure in the UK and forward some interesting possibilities. This thought-provoking title shows that a careful investigation can yield much more than the authorities release into the public domain. - Blanket 'ban' on UK publicity suggests that the theories forwarded by Hounam and McAdam hit a raw nerve with the British Establishment. - Co-written by the former head of the respected Sunday Times Insight Team.
