Diana: Death of a Goddess

Rate this book
Includes sensational new material!

12:23 a.m. August 31st 1997. The Mercedes driven by Henri Paul in which Princess Diana, Dodi Al Fayed and Trevor Rees-Jones were travelling crashes into a pillar in the Alma tunnel in Paris, killing Paul, Dodi and Diana and seriously injuring Rees-Jones. That much is certain. But little else.

David Cohen never expected to be investigating Diana’s death. But after a reliable source asked him to fly to Geneva to listen to a dramatic story, he soon found himself on the trial of a young Englishwoman who, he increasingly came to realize, had been tragically out of her depth in the company of drugs dealers, arms dealers and secret service operators.

Cohen reveals answers to some of the most troubling questions surrounding the events of that night. He discloses why the Mercedes was taking the wrong route to Dodi’s flat. He uncovers incriminating information about the owner of the infamous Fiat Uno. He reveals Henri Paul’s true role with M16. And, after years of investigation, he explains the links between the mysterious cult, The Order of the Solar Temple – whose members, including Princess Grace of Monaco, have died in a series of suspicious circumstances – and the circumstances surrounding Diana on the night she died.

Interesting but hard to read as so many characters and theories and evidence to be looked in to.
My conclusion is definitely never be in a road accident in France as chances of survival are poor.

FROM THE BOOK
1. A pedestrian Belkacem B, felt that panic. 'At once I saw the deriver had been squashed to a pulp, with his hand through the windscreen. I saw the passenger had his jaw cut. His body was held upright by his seat belt and leaning against the airbag. He was trapped in the vehicle and there was no way to open the door. I thought it better not to touch him. In the back seat was a man of about forty, stretched out, his feet in an awkward position, his eyes turned back in his head. I saw right away he was dead. Beside him, between the right-hand front seat and the back seat, a blonde woman was doubled up on herself with a gash on her forehead and her watch-strep undone. She moaned, and said a few words in English." My God, My God," I think. She still had her shoes on her feet.'
Belkacem asked one of the photographers what they should do. She thinks it was Rat who replied, Don't touch anything. It's Princess Diana. She's with dodi!,.(Page. 69)

This book delves into what many consider conspiracy theories about Diana and Dodi's and their driver's death. However the author has asked some very key questions about the investigation and the many ways in which it was carried out. A very interesting book and unsettling too.

This was fine. Got it from a charity shop for 10p. Concerns theories around Diana's death, begs the question of even if there was a conspiracy to murder Diana, did she die as a consequence or was it merely an accident?

É um grande trabalho de investigação que está neste mini-livro, e com as várias teorias que se foram formando ao longo dos anos.
Conta também o relato das testemunhas, de alguns jornalistas que prestaram o auxílio em vez de tirarem as fotografias e terem um grande furo, talvez aquela notícia terem o seu nome da capa do jornal. Infelizmente não seria nem foi pelos bons motivos, porque indireta ou indiretamente houve consequências.
