Book
The Beverly Hills Supper Club : the untold story behind Kentucky's worst tragedy / by Robert D. Webster ; with David Brock and Tom McConaughy.
"This is the complete history of the alleged mob activity in Newport, Kentucky, and the magnificent Beverly Hills Supper Club, where 169 people died and the lives of thousands were changed in an instant. Unlike other publications, however, this is the true untold story of what led to Kentucky’s worst tragedy—a story of greed, corruption, deceit, Mafia rule, government cover-ups, kidnapping, and even murder. In fact, this book details one of the worst cases of mass murder in US history."--Publisher's description.
