Description

A história real da caçada que inspirou American Crime Story: O Assassinato de Gianni Versace, a segunda temporada da aclamada série do canal FX. Em 15 de julho de 1997, Gianni Versace foi morto a tiros nos degraus da entrada de sua mansão em Miami Beach pelo serial killer Andrew Cunanan. Mas, meses antes do assassinato de Versace, a premiada jornalista Maureen Orth já vinha investigando a história de Cunanan para a revista Vanity Fair. Escrito a partir de uma seleção de entrevistas com mais de 400 pessoas e insights obtidos de milhares de páginas de relatórios policiais, Favores vulgares conta a história completa de Andrew Cunanan, suas vítimas inadvertidas e o mundo opulento em que elas viveram... e morreram. Orth revela como Cunanan conheceu Versace e a razão pela qual a polícia e o FBI falharam repetidamente em capturá-lo. Esta é uma odisseia impossível de largar, que atravessa os Estados Unidos desde a rica comunidade gay da Califórnia aos modestos lares do Meio-Oeste, onde famílias se condoíam pela perda de seus filhos, chegando a uma decadente South Beach, na Flórida. Favores vulgares é ao mesmo tempo uma obra-prima do jornalismo investigativo e um fascinante relato sobre um sociopata, seus crimes e os mistérios que ele deixou para trás.
