Andrea Reynolds was Claus von Bulow's mistress from 1982 to
1987, and she helped him successfully appeal his conviction of
attempted murder, for which he had been sentenced to thirty-two
years in prison.
Von Bulow was convicted in 1982 of two counts of attempted
murder of his wife, the immensely wealthy heiress Martha "Sunny"
von Bulow. His wife was rich, beautiful, and American-and the case
stirred up a firestorm of coverage in the tabloids and mainstream
press.
But Reynolds, an aristocratic married to the famous television
producer Sheldon Reynolds, believed in his innocence. She defied
her husband by corresponding with the convict before slipping into
a passionate love affair-risking everything for von Bulow.
"My Claus von Bulow Affaire" offers an insider's account of a
controversial case that spawned two bestsellers and was made into
an Oscar-winning film starring Jeremy Irons and Glenn Close. What's
more, it provides a portrait of a largely vanished world, vividly
depicting how rich and titled people on both sides of the Atlantic
talked and thought, what they ate, how they dressed and made love,
argued, and handled money.
