IN 1947 a small-town beauty queen Elizabeth Short, aka The Black Dahlia, is found murdered on Los Angeles wasteland.

She had been horribly mutilated.

After spending 35 years investigating the case, Gilmore tells the story of Elizabeth's short, tragic life and reveals the tangled inside story of the police investigation, which never resulted in a conviction.

The one person who could be responsible for the murder, and indirectly confessed to

it, died suddenly in a house fire.

Haunting and not for the faint-hearted.
