Chasing Diana: Perception Vs. Reality [Paperback]

TAGLINE While vacationing in Paris, the lives of an American family collide with the fatal automobile crash of the world's most beloved Princess. INSPIRED BY A TRUE STORY.

Princess Diana was killed on August 31, 1997 in a car crash in Paris. Where were you when you heard the news? Everybody has an answer, but nobody has an answer quite like Robin Firestone and Jack Firestone, the wife-and-husband team who have co-authored CHASING DIANA: PERCEPTION VS. REALITY.

The happenstance and capriciousness of life places an American family in the seminal historic moment of the shocking death of Princess Diana in this dramatic, though breezy and light thriller/drama. A bit off-the-wall at times, yet always laced with a serious dose of wry humor and pathos, this book has the quirky endearing feel of THE GRAND BUDAPEST HOTEL but with the macabre darkness and ironic style of THE GIRL ON THE TRAIN. With an urbane sensibility coupled with a universally recognized subject matter, CHASING DIANA: PERCEPTION VS. REALITY will appeal to international audiences.

Included in this volume is a very rare Afterword, as the reader experiences a behind-the-scenes look at the trial that shook Great Britain to its core.

They describe their ordeal for the first time ever in print, in this Special Edition.

And also included is Mr. Firestone's personal journal entitled Tunnel Vision, which gives personal insight, from a subjective point-of-view, to the car crash, the investigation, the police, the paparazzi... and the relentlessness and restlessnelÃ%
