In 1955, Ann Woodward shot her husband, Billy, in their Oyster Bay, Long Island, home. While she was cleared by a grand jury, which believed her story that she had mistaken Billy for a prowler who had been recently breaking into neighboring houses, New York society was convinced that she had deliberately murdered Billy and that her formidable mother-in-law, Elsie Woodward, had covered up the crime to prevent further scandal to the socially prominent family. The incident became fiction in Truman Capote's malicious 1975 Esquire story, leading to Ann's suicide, and later was the subject of Dominick Dunne's The Two Mrs. Grenvilles. Now, after years of research, Braudy reveals the truth behind the legend. Tracing Ann's life from her difficult Kansas childhood through her early years as a model and aspiring actress to her stormy marriage to Billy Woodward and the sad years of her social exile after his death, Braudy shows how Ann, a victim of cruel gossip and class snobbery, could not have deliberately killed Billy.

MISS BILLY BY ELEANOR H. PORTER Meet Billy, 18, now an orphan after her aunt who raised her has just passed away. There is no one to look after her except maybe an old friend of her father's and the person she was named after, William Henshaw. William, now widowed, is the eldest of three brothers who all live together. Each brother lives on a separate floor and each has his individual idiosyncrasies. The three men get quite a shock when the letter from Billy arrives begging William to let her come live with him. One problem! Billy doesn't mention her age or the fact that she's a girl. Billy is effervescent and has a good heart, and I liked the positive impact that she had on the other characters.
