Read the book by Thomas Thompson!

It's called "Blood and Money". Published in 1977, it was one of the first true-crime books I ever read. It was riveting! Joan's mysterious death has never been explained, despite an autopsy by a world-famous pathologist. It has been suggested she died from toxic shock syndrome. I don't think her husband killed her (her father and many others believed that Dr. Hill poisoned Joan to marry the woman he'd been having an affair with). I also don't believe he was sorry she died, and I DO believe he was guilty of not getting her to a hospital until she was critically ill. Her illness sounded like stomach flu -- vomiting and diarrhea. I think she grew dehydrated, and he deliberately waited a couple of days before taking her to the hospital. By that time she was in kidney failure, and shortly thereafter her heart failed. Barely two months after she died, Dr. Hill remarried. That marriage ended in divorce, but his third marriage seemed to be off to a good start until he was gunned down in his own home in September 1972. Read the book to find out the rest of the story. It's recently been re-issued in paperback.
