...dirt there is, flying all over London, kicked up by papers whose checks he rejected. The revenge frenzy threw off a raft of titillating revelations: Burrell sneaked Diana's lovers into Kensington Palace in the trunk of his car; he drove her around London at night so she could give away money to prostitutes; she once greeted her lover Hasnat Khan wearing only a fur coat and jewels; she bought pregnancy tests in drugstores for fun; Prince Philip, the Queen's husband, was said to have written Diana calling her a "trollop."

Appropriately, they were seized in the same benign setting in which they had allegedly stalked their victims--a nondescript parking lot off a highway outside Washington. It is hard to imagine what castles of delusion came crashing down when the tactical team smashed in the windows...

...prizewinning writer and author of the novel July, July. "I didn't get one. There's a lot of tension, and there's pressure, and you're shaking. You have a drill sergeant yelling in your ear, 'Shoot straight!'"
