It's one of the most brutal unsolved murders in the Elvis Presley universe - the 1981 slaying of his beautiful "Blue Hawaii" co-star, Jenny Maxwell. It was reported at the time that the murder was part of a botched robbery in Beverly Hills, but that's not at all what happened. Forty years after the murder, thanks to this book, it's finally been solved. Who killed Jenny Maxwell, and why? For the first time, the truth is revealed in "Murder of an Elvis Girl: Solving the Jenny Maxwell Case," And the truth is incredible.Jenny Maxwell was one of the hottest young actresses in Hollywood in the early 1960s, and she became best known as an Elvis Girl, playing the bratty Ellie Corbett in Elvis Presley's classic 1961 film, "Blue Hawaii." The performance made her one of the most memorable Elvis Girls ever and endeared her to generations of the King's fans. She appeared in dozens of TV shows, as well - everything from "Bonanza" and "My Three Sons" to "Father Knows Best" and "The Twilight Zone." In the 1960s, Jenny Maxwell's career was red-hot. She was friends with Sharon Tate and Peggy Lipton and dated a slew of young Hollywood stars.Off the screen, though, her personal life was a mess. She married film director Paul Rapp when she was just seventeen and became a mom at nineteen. Her marriage and her motherhood fell apart thanks to a lifestyle of Hollywood parties, drugs and sex. In an effort to win back her son, she quit Hollywood altogether in 1968 and married Ervin "Tip" Roeder, a high-powered and mobbed-up Los Angeles divorce attorney who was twenty years her senior. Their marriage was a rocky one, and by the time 1981 came around, they were separated and heading for divorce. Tip Roeder was at Jenny's side that fateful day in Beverly Hills, as they were both gunned down by the assassin outside her condo."Murder of an Elvis Girl" tells the amazing Hollywood life story of a true Elvis legend. Jenny Maxwell shared the screen with the likes of Jimmy Stewart, Robert Conrad, Joey Bishop. Bob Hope and Joan Crawford. She rubbed elbows with Frank Sinatra and Sandra Dee. And biggest of all, she was an Elvis Girl.The story of how this book came about is just as incredible. "Murder of an Elvis Girl" is written by Buddy Moorehouse, a longtime journalist from Michigan who is actually Jenny's first cousin, once removed (his grandfather and her father were brothers). The family had always been told that Jenny's murder was part of a botched robbery, but they never quite believed that, so Buddy embarked on a journey in 2019 to learn the truth of what really happened to their famous cousin. He eventually struck pay dirt when he found the detective who had investigated - and solved - the murder.This is the untold story of a long-forgotten Hollywood legend - how she lived, how she loved, and how she died.

MARILYN MONROE – DIANA, PRINCESS OF WALES – ELVIS PRESLEY – JOHN F. KENNEDY – MICHAEL JACKSON These five deaths stopped the whole world in its tracks, and continue to fascinate and intrigue to this day. If people famously remember where they were when JFK was assassinated, many also recall where they were and what they were doing when Elvis, Princess Diana and Michael Jackson died. As for Marilyn Monroe, the candle flickered out long ago, but only now can the truth be told about how – and why – she died. After combing through thousands of recently declassified FBI files, interviewing key witnesses, crime analysts and forensic experts during years of research, investigative writer David Gardner has unearthed new information that will transform the way we look at these iconic tragedies. His book reveals that Elvis Presley died not as a self-obsessed caricature but as a genuine hero who may have signed his death warrant going undercover for the FBI; how Marilyn Monroe’s secret affairs with JFK and his brother, Robert, left her in the crosshairs of a lethal conspiracy; why Princess Diana’s death was no accident; who ordered President John F. Kennedy’s assassination; and the shocking truth about Michael Jackson’s prescription drug addiction and those who sought to gain from it. For the first time, Legends provides many of the answers that have been so elusive for so long, while explaining what it was about these enduring legends that made them so memorable.

After fifteen years of extensive research, the non-fiction book, "EVIDENCE OF MURDER - Investigating the Strange Death of Elvis Presley", presents the first full, in-depth critical study of the complete facts of Elvis' sudden demise. This book has been an uncompromised quest for the truth, and the result is both astonishing and shocking. All of the facts in the book firmly establish one, and ONLY one conclusion: ELVIS PRESLEY WAS MURDERED. Unrelentingly focusing on the vital aspects of WHY the murder was committed, HOW it was brilliantly and flawlessly executed, and exactly WHO the perpetrator was, the book meticulously examines seven prime suspects and then carefully eliminates them one by one until the guilty assassin is fully and unmistakably exposed. A shocking revelation that the previous hard facts of the investigation will make it impossible for any honest reader to dispute or reject. And, on the contrary - those legions of doubters who have closed their minds to rational thinking and clear facts will probably most happily have found a topic which they will hotly and vehemently debate for the rest of their lives. Elvis Presley was the icon of the Twentieth Century, and he has remained a SuperStar without rival. His sudden death in the summer of 1977 has unceasingly been something of a mystery, an unexplained and misunderstood event creating an intense fulcrum of fascination and highly charged emotion and confusion and doubt for almost half a century. A variety of theories and hasty conclusions - ALL of them erroneous and false - have weakly sought to solve the mystery of Elvis' premature sudden death. Now - with vital new pieces of the puzzle available - it has been finally possible to assemble the true facts of this very surprising mosaic of murder and betrayal and corruption - facts discovered in FBI and government private files, hidden medical and hospital records, and interviews with Presley intimates. Thus - all of the facts and information lead directly to only one conclusion: Elvis was NOT the victim of an accident or a death from natural causes. Elvis' death was a crime! MURDER. The Superstar was the victim of an elaborate and ingenious plot motivated by FEAR, GREED, and REVENGE. EVIDENCE OF MURDER is a fascinating and thrilling journey through the solution of one of history's most carelessly handled and amazingly ignored murder cases. All of the facts in the book are suspensefully presented and very easy to follow for any reader, regardless of their scientific basis and forensic procedure. It's a fast moving book that most readers will find impossible to put down, and be compelled to read to the end in one sitting. Michael John Sullivan is the author os several award-winning, best selling books, amongst them, the Random House critically acclaimed A FATAL PASSION and the mystery to end all mysteries, THE MURDER SCORE. He lives in Southern California within view of the Pacific Ocean - his favorite realm.
