British author J.R. Hensby joins us from the U.K.WAS ELVIS MURDERED?
AND OTHER TRUE CRIMES FROM THE DARK SIDE OF DIXIE

The shock was felt around the world when it was announced on August 16th 1977 that the world’s biggest superstar, Elvis Presley, the King of Rock-n-Roll, had died at the age of only forty-two. Since then there has been much speculation about what actually happened on that fateful day. Did he die of natural causes? Did he commit suicide? Did he die of a drug overdose? Did he not die at all? Or was he murdered?

The author, a massive fan of Elvis, examines in great detail all the available evidence relating to these possible scenarios and gives an opinion about what did happen to Elvis all those years ago.

That is the main story in the book, but additionally there are detailed true accounts of twelve horrible crimes committed in the beautiful Deep South of America: Young black boys who were electrocuted without any fair trial, women who murdered family members with impunity for years, a Baptist Minister who murdered the church handyman....... and much more.

Illustrated with 20 full page photos.
