Summary
Was What's My Line TV star, media icon, and crack investigative reporter and journalist Dorothy Kilgallen murdered for writing a tell-all book about the JFK assassination? If so, is the main suspect in her death still at large?
These questions and more are answered in former CNN, ESPN, and USA Today legal analyst Mark Shaw's 25th book, The Reporter Who Knew Too Much. Through discovery of never-before-seen videotaped eyewitness interviews with those closest to Kilgallen and secret government documents, Shaw unfolds a "whodunit" murder mystery featuring suspects including Frank Sinatra, J. Edgar Hoover, Mafia Don Carlos Marcello, and a "mystery man" who may have silenced Kilgallen. All while by presenting through Kilgallen's eyes the most compelling evidence about the JFK assassinations since the House Select Committee on Assassination's investigation in the 1970s.
Called by the New York Post "the most powerful female voice in America" and by acclaimed author Mark Lane "the only serious journalist in America who was concerned with who killed John Kennedy and getting all of the facts about the assassination," Kilgallen's official cause of death, reported as an overdose of barbiturates combined with alcohol, has always been suspect since no investigation occurred despite the death scene having been staged. Shaw proves Kilgallen, a remarkable woman who broke the "glass ceiling" before the term became fashionable, was denied the justice she deserved - until now.

Great
Can’t believe I had never heard of Dorothy Kilgallen, an investigative journalist martyred for her profession. Mark Shaw, another fantastic investigative journalist has given her some of the justice she deserves in this book. I hope that someday he will be able to write a sequel as some of the people, still living who have knowledge of the the circumstances of her death will at last speak out.

A real eye opener into a murder I had no knowledge
Good story, well narrated, another story of which I had no previous knowledge, pointing to the suspcious circumstances of the Kennedy murders, Marilyn Munroe etc..
There is however too much repetition it could have been a lot shorter.

Will read more of his books
Enjoyed the book - good to see truth coming out rather than what the media have fed us for years. More authors should speak out - too late for the murderers to be on trial and in jail, but at least the truth is now out there.

Interesting
Worth a read/listen. A lot of interesting facts about the JFK assassination. Never heard of Dorothy before but she seemed like a very interesting character. The only thing I didn't like was the repetitions of the same things over and over again.

Too many questions not enough answers
I bought this book after reading about its much-hyped release.
Unfortunately it disappointed.
The book kept coming up with theories of who could have killed Kilgallen but then didn’t produce any hard evidence to back them up.
