Deadly Triangle: The Famous Architect, His Wife, Their Chauffeur, and Murder Most Foul

Thank you NetGalley and Dundurn Press for accepting my request to read and review Deadly Triangle.
Author: Susan Goldenberg
Published: 11/08/22
Genre: History -- True Crime
There are no spoilers. This murder occurred in 1935. The synopsis is spot-on.
The first third of the book is slow and dry. The remaining two-thirds moves along at a Court's pace with memories playing out. The story itself is incredibly sad. I found myself gutted with the ending. I was not familiar with the popular case. It was all new to me.
The trial is a nice portion of the book. During that period the social injustices are shown and play out. This is one of the first cases to garner public opinions with people camping out for a seat in the court room. The standards by which women treated each other I found appalling. The book finishes with updates on all key players.
This is a giftable read for true time junkies, students of Women's Studies, or Period studies.
