The legendary Dorothy Kilgallen’s Murder One is our bonus-review topic this month. I’ll save my ruminating on how that last name should become a standardized verb in the secondhand-book trade1, and note instead that 1) I can’t believe that counterfeiting book got any votes, so well played, my fellow obscurity nerds; and 2) I did say I would probably review the top two vote-getters — but I think I’ll review Murder One and another Kilgallen-adjacent book instead.

Mark Shaw has written approximately nine pounds of crackpottery about her death, so I could pull one of those off my shelves, or dig into Lee Israel’s Kilgallen. Let me know if you’ve got a pref!
