The Marilyn story you've never read - because it hasn't happened yet Marilyn died in August 1962 - and for over 50 years since her death she remains one of the most iconic Hollywood stars. Mystery surrounds her - was her sudden death the result of an overdose, as "authorities" declared, or was it murder? Was her alleged affair with the President, JFK, fact or just character assassination on the two figures, and if so, who went after them? Stories abound - but how much is fact and how much is fiction? DEAD BUT NOT GONE is a high-concept paranormal thriller with a good dose of romance and even some chuckles. When a cosmic phenomenon passes through Los Angeles one early morning, in fact, directly over Marilyn's crypt, and while other strange things are happening around the city as a result, bizarre noises emit from her tomb as it begins to shake and finally the door falls to the ground and from it emerges Marilyn, just as beautiful and whole as the day she died. What ensues is a twisted tale as Marilyn discovers that she is alive again. As she learns about her new world she also finds out that the truth of her past life has been buried in lies, especially about the nature of her death, and as she attempts to expose the real story and the people behind it, the thrill ride begins all over again.
