Hatte sich einfach jemand Cobains reißerische Weltschmerzpose zunutze gemacht, um einen Mord zu vertuschen?

Die Journalisten Halperin und Wallace sind den Ungereimtheiten auf den Grund gegangen.

„Michael Jackson hat nur noch sechs Monate zu leben“ sagte Ian Halperin Ende Dezember 2008. Seine Nachforschungen zu Jacksons schwindender Gesundheit bestimmten fortan die Schlagzeilen. Weltweit.

A chilling, groundbreaking investigation into the death of one of the great rock icons of our times -- including exclusive access to the case tapes of Courtney Love's former P.I., and a host of compelling new evidence. On Friday, April 8, 1994, a body was discovered in a room above a garage in Seattle. For the attending authorities, it was an open-and-shut case of suicide. What no one knew then, however, is that the deceased -- Kurt Cobain, the superstar frontman of Nirvana -- had been murdered. Drawing on case tapes made by a P.I. hired by Courtney Love when her husband escaped from drug rehab and went missing -- and on new forensic evidence and police reports obtained under the Freedom of Information Act -- Love & Death explodes the long-standing theory that Kurt Cobain took his own life. Award-winning investigative journalists Max Wallace and Ian Halperin have conducted a ten-year crusade for the truth, and in Love & Death they present a stunning, convincing argument that the whole truth has yet to be revealed.
