Omschrijving

NOW A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE from director Ridley Scott, starring Lady Gaga and Adam Driver

Who killed Maurizio Gucci? Discover the sensational true story of murder, madness, glamour, and greed that shook the Gucci dynasty-and inspired the blockbuster film.

"A riveting account ... has the holding power and pace of an engaging novel." --Bloomberg

On the morning of March 27, 1995, four quick shots cracked through Milan's elegant streets. Maurizio Gucci, heir to the fabulous Italian fashion dynasty, had been ambushed, slain on the steps to his office by an unknown gunman. Two years later, Milan's chief of police entered the sumptuous palazzo of Maurizio's ex-wife, Patrizia Reggiani--nicknamed "the Black Widow" by the press--and arrested her for the murder.

Did Patrizia kill her ex-husband because his spending was wildly out of control? Did she do it because he was preparing to marry his mistress? Or is it possible Patrizia didn't do it at all?

The Gucci story is one of glitz, glamour, and intrigue--a chronicle of the rise, near fall, and subsequent resurgence of a fashion dynasty. Beautifully written, impeccably researched, and widely acclaimed, The House of Gucci is a page-turning true crime account of high fashion, high finance, and heartrending personal tragedy.

This riveting account of the Gucci family breaks down the decades of glamour and greed that led to murder:

A Fashion Dynasty: Follow the rise of the Gucci empire from a small Florentine leather shop to a global symbol of glamour, and the family rivalries that threatened to tear it all apart.
A High-Stakes Betrayal: Uncover the story of Maurizio Gucci, the heir who fought for control of the company, and the personal and financial troubles that made him a target.
The Black Widow: Delve into the life of Patrizia Reggiani, Maurizio's ambitious ex-wife, and the critical question at the heart of the case: Did she order the murder of her husband?
Meticulous Investigation: Based on impeccable research, this book pieces together the shocking murder mystery that captivated the world, from the shots fired in Milan to the dramatic courtroom trial.
