What if everything we knew about the Manson Sect murders wasn't true? Who was friends with him in Hollywood, and what were they willing to do to hide their connections? And how did Charles Manson, an illiterate ex—convict, turn a group of peaceful hippies into ruthless killers? Journalist Tom O'Neill has spent twenty years trying to find answers to these questions.During two dark nights in Los Angeles, Manson's young followers killed seven people, including actress Sharon Tate, the wife of famous film director Roman Polanski, who was eight months pregnant. Mercilessly and seemingly without motive, the Manson 'Family' followed their leader's every command— their crimes sparked paranoia across the country, ending the carefree sixties and the hippie era.Shocking discoveries and suspicious coincidences that will force us to take a fresh look at one of the most notorious cases in American modern history.
