The House of Gucci. A Sensational Story of Murder, Madness, Glamour, and Greed

On the morning of March 27, 1995, Maurizio Gucci, heir to the legendary fashion dynasty, was shot on the doorstep of his office. Two years later, the chief of police in Milan entered the luxurious palazzo of Maurizio's ex-wife, Patrizia Reggiani, and arrested her for murder. Did Patrizia kill her ex-husband out of jealousy for his new fiancée? Or was it someone else who killed Maurizio — due to him losing the company and nearly bankrupting the family business? The story of the Gucci dynasty is a dizzying journey into the world of high fashion, glamour, big money — and just as big scandals and personal tragedies. The globally acclaimed book House of Gucci tells the thrilling story of murder, madness, glamour, and greed.
