ABOUT THE BOOK
In
Perugia, Italy, on November 2,
2007, police discovered the body of a British college student
stabbed to death in her bedroom. The prosecutor alleged that the
brutal murder had occurred during a drug-fueled sex game gone wrong.
Her housemate, American honor student Amanda Knox, quickly became
the prime suspect and soon found herself the star of a sensational
international story, both vilified and eroticized by the tabloids
and the Internet.
