Where were you the day Diana died? For most, the shock is still a clear and present memory. But the truth behind the tragedy has been something less than clear. Until now.

Bestselling author Christopher Andersen draws on important sources, including hospital workers, palace insiders, emergency workers, eyewitnesses, friends, and family to recreate in vivid, often startling detail, the events leading up to that fateful night in Paris. Here is the story behind the headlines, the last days of Diana, the princess who changed the course of British history. Learn:

What intimate matter preoccupied the princess the night she died.
What other passenger in the car had a record for hit-and-run drunk driving.
Why the most fashionable woman in history lay in her coffin in a borrowed dress.
How Mohamed Al Fayed engineered the romance between a vulnerable Diana and his son Dodi.
Charles's role in forcing the Queen to publicly acknowledge Diana's death.
What mysterious car was also seen in the tunnel that night and played a role in the crash.

About this title

Review:

A year after Princess Diana's tragic death in 1997, shocking revelations about her passing have surfaced via eyewitness testimony. From the nurse who covered her naked, lifeless body and who answered the queen's immediate query of "where are the jewels?" to the off-duty paramedic who held Diana's head in his hands, The Day Diana Died leaves no sacred rock unturned. What was the expression on Prince Charles's face when he saw Diana's mutilated body? How did Prince William and Harry react when they first heard the devastating news? Was there cocaine in the Mercedes? Inquiring minds want to know, and Christopher Andersen serves up a hefty portion of hearsay for those with an insatiable Diana appetite. Not meant for individuals with delicate sensibilities, this collage of reliable, low-profile sources covers everything from the measurements of Diana and Dodi's wounds to Camilla Parker-Bowles's two cents on her rival's death. In other words, if People magazine were to offer a class about the late princess, The Day Diana Died would be required reading. --Rebekah Warren
