Written by investigative journalist Milt Machlin, former editor of Argosy magazine, this volume reconstructs the life and career of Libby Holman, the Broadway torch singer whose voice and dramatic lifestyle captivated the theater world before her descent into real-life infamy. The narrative centers on the events of July 1932, when Libby's young husband, Zachary Smith Reynolds, the twenty-year-old heir to the R. J. Reynolds tobacco fortune, was found shot to death under mysterious circumstances during a weekend gathering at Reynolda, their North Carolina country estate. Machlin examines the murder indictment against Libby, her complex relationship with the Reynolds family, and the legal maneuvering that resulted in the charges being dropped before the case could reach trial. Presented in a mass-market paperback binding, the volume includes a dedicated section of historical black-and-white photographs documenting the key figures, venues, and court proceedings. Machlin spent years researching the Smith Reynolds case and interviewing surviving participants, and his other investigative works include Ninth Life, on Caryl Chessman, and an account of the search for the missing heir Michael Rockefeller. …
