...Moscow correspondent Sally Donnelly says. "Standing near people like German Chancellor Kohl and President Clinton touches the Russian idea that they are still a great nation, which is hard to see in day-to-day life."

But in both works, details of the lawyers' behind-the-scenes machinations remain strangely compelling. Darden describes a jaunt to the Bahamas, where he unsuccessfully pursued a tip that Simpson was planning to flee there the day of the Bronco chase, and both writers float rumors that juror Francine Florio-Bunten was dismissed under suspicious circumstances. Shapiro also reveals that the defense team offered to have Simpson take a lie detector test at the outset, knowing full well that the prosecution...
