Book Overview

The night of October 30, 1975, fifteen-year-old Martha Moxley was bludgeoned and stabbed with a golf club on the grounds of her family's Greenwich home. The golf club that killed Martha came from the house of Thomas and Michael Skakel, two boys who had been with Martha the night she died. Wealthy and prominent in their own right, the Skakels were related to the Kennedys, as Ethel Skakel Kennedy was the boys' aunt. When the police started looking closely at the Skakels' involvement, the family refused to cooperate. Twenty-two years later Martha Moxley's murder remained unsolved. Now Mark Fuhrman, the former LAPD homicide detective who followed his controversial role in he O. J. Simpson trial with the bestseller Murder in Brentwood , turns his investigative skills to the murder of Martha Moxley. Is this another case of money, power, and fame getting away with murder? In Murder in Greenwich , Fuhrman investigates this unsolved homicide form the beginning. Using his detective skills to analyze the case and uncover explosive new information--including top secret documents compiled by the Skakels' own private investigators--Mark Fuhrman will reveal: how the local police mishandled the investigation from the beginning how the murder weapon was found--and then lost--at the crime scene how wealth and influence interfered with the investigation how authorities tried to stop Fuhrman's investigation A beautiful teenager was brutally murder in an exclusive and well-guarded suburb. How could it happen? Why did her killer get away with it? Who was involved in the cover-up? What role did the town of Greenwich itself play in the investigation. From the investigation, Mark Fuhrman will offer his answers to these questions, as well as the question that everyone is still asking: Who killed Martha Moxley?

Another excellent book

I knew Michael skakel did it

Simplicity at it finest

Mark Furhman’s storytelling is all evidence and no frills. He presents the facts and evidence in an easy-to-read chronology of facts and events.

Great true crime mystery

Very well written true crime saga. Definitely shows all sides of the story. Of course it leads to embarrassment for some sides but the truth is the truth. Great read.

Another readable book by Mark Fuhrman

I simply consume books, and if I like the book I can read a whole book in a short period of time. I had read the Simpson book prior to Murder in Greenwich, and simply could not put it down! It was even hard to go to work. I started this book one evening about 7:00pm, went to work the next day and finished it about midnight the next night. Mark Fuhrman has a style that will keep you mesmerized. Plus, I find him very compassionate. Our system has become so political, it's a wonder that we catch and prosecute anyone. What a shame! It seems that justice would be the main objective. Both the Simpson case and the Moxley case are just a reflection of each other. Money and politics come in ahead of justice. Mark, please give us a book on the Ramsey case! Let's get the true story.I have searched the internet to send a fan letter to Mark Fuhrman. Hopefully, this review will reach him.

thanks to mark furhman, the ball is rolling

I have read muder in brentwood and just finished muder in greenwich.Mark Fuhrman has a excellent way of explaning the complex investigation that goes into a murder case. both books where easy to follow all the way thru. when Mark came to town it became clear alot of people had things to hide. also things started to happen just before his book was published,and after came the big one a arrest

A Travesty of Justice

If you thought the OJ Simpson case was a travesty of justice, wait until you read this! At least OJ was brought to trial. The murderer of Martha Moxley is still free. However, I can't help but think that the research and effort Mark Fuhrman put into this book has helped bring about the recent arrest of Michael Skakel. Whatever you may think of Fuhrman after the OJ Simpson trial debacle, after reading this book, you can't deny that he is an excellent detective. He explains the basic principles of crime investigation and shows how the Greenwich police botched the case. In addition, his conclusions are well thought out and detailed. I can't believe how much trouble and resistance he encountered in gathering information on this case. His reasoning is easy to follow and his conclusions, based on the facts, make you wonder why no one was arrested before now! If you have any doubts about Fuhrman's abilities as a detective, read Vincent Bugliosi's "Outrage." I hope Fuhrman will tackle the JonBenet Ramsey case....then maybe justice will be served there as well.

Holds Your Attention & Well-Researched

Say what you will about Mr. Fuhrman,he has written THE authoritative book about the Moxley case. I was thoroughly impressed with his work. As for the reviewer from Greenwich stating that Mark Fuhrman as an outsider isn't able to write about the case adequately, you're wrong! By the way, Dumas's book is titled 'Greentown', not 'Greenstown' as you mistakenly spelled it. Looks like you need to get YOUR facts straight. Typical example of the ignorant Greenwich snobs Mr. Fuhrman encountered and had to deal with while researching this book. How sad!
