Tell me if you've heard this before: A crooked cop is part of a crooked secret division and manages, almost from day one, to access and read explosive information about other crooked cops, politicians and celebrities. Years later, based on alleged documents and hearsay (assuming he ever spoke to Peter Lawford about anything other than alcohol) he (sorta) writes a book that claims he, and only he, knows the whole truth about Marilyn Monroe's death. So, what might set off bells and whistles here? Crooked cop telling on other crooked cops? No evidence? A confession he didn't bother to record? The long delay with "evidence" he claims would get a conviction yet he never produced in the book? I kept waiting for him to throw in for free the explosive story of how RFK went back in time and killed Lincoln.
Between the poor writing and the lack of concrete proof, this is largely a waste of time. I might have gotten some enjoyment reading about the inner workings of the paramilitary unit known as the LAPD if I felt I could trust anything at all Rothmiller says. But I don't, so I didn't.
If you love conspiracies, if you support Qanon and all of the crazy conspiracies currently being used to fleece the American public, you'll love this book. If you want something even remotely like proof before accepting such an accusation as this, then you will be disappointed. If you teach a writing class and you have been looking for a good example of how not to write a book, you have found a gold mine here.
