From Al Capone to Bugsy Siegel: the leading figures of the American underworld were at her feet. How Virginia Hill ended up from bad Las Vegas to the quiet mountains of Austria is a true crime thriller.
On March 24, 1966, a hiker in the forest near Alterbach discovered the lifeless body of a woman with an overdose of sleeping pills in her blood. Eight years later, her husband was also found dead, hanged in his bar. Both cases were recorded as suicide. But were they really?
Witnesses later reported strangulation marks on the woman’s neck, but the report was lost. Could the mafia have left deadly traces in quiet Salzburg? After all, the dead were legendary gangster bride Virginia Hill and her husband, skier Hans Hauser. And the woman’s story leads to a life as a crime story – or a crime story that only life can write.
