Her sensational case provoked an anxious outcry and became the stuff of urban legend. Kevin Cook's \"provocative\" (\u003cem\u003eWall Street Journal\u003c\/em\u003e) investigation upends the simple story we thought we knew. His unprecedented minute-by-minute reconstruction of the crime shatters the fable of the 38 passive witnesses--a myth perpetuated by the \u003cem\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/em\u003e, movies, TV programs, and countless psychology textbooks. For the first time, Cook introduces us to a neighbor who \u003cem\u003edid\u003c\/em\u003e intervene, and he brings to life a vibrant and charismatic Kitty, working (and dancing) her way through the colorful, fast-changing New York of the '60s.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kevin Cook\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0393350576\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780393350579\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e W.
