Subtitled: The Mysterious Death of William Desmond Taylor
William Desmond Taylor was a successful director at the Famous Players Studio in Hollywood, 1922. He was found dead on the floor in his home.
For most of this series I have been, at the very least, familiar with the name of the victim(s) or perpetrator(s). In this one, however, I wasn't. I had never heard of William Desmond Taylor, so this was a new experience for me. I liked learning about this particular era in Hollywood and the entire mystery of his death. As usual, this edition contains superb writing and drawings by Geary.
I'm always game for learning new information and I like that it's a graphic novel!
