Two and a half billion viewers watched her funeral on television.
Ten years later, in spite of two separate official inquiries,
closely followed by an enormous press and TV coverage,
the cause of the death of Diana, Princess of Wales, remains a complete mystery.
It wasn’t the paparazzi’s nor the chauffeur’s fault. It was not a matter of speed or alcohol.
It was not an “ordinary road accident” as the French investigation endeavoured to demonstrate.
Too many questions still remain unanswered.
Why is the chauffeur’s blood analysis obviously fake, and the real blood sample officially lost? Why was a key eyewitness undoubtedly scared into silence by French authorities? Why did the English investigation start more than six years after the facts? Where was the Mercedes actually going? What should have happened next?
Elusive sources. Administrative mishaps. Disappearing witnesses. Belated public investigations. Controversial judicial conclusions.
Francis Gillery’s investigation started in France four years ago.
Key testimonies and hidden evidence were waiting there to be found by a thorough investigation.
What Gillery uncovered gives a wholly unexpected meaning to the tragedy. “Requiem for a Princess” follows an astonishing trail from Paris to Dubai, through London, Luxemburg, Vienna, Monaco, and Washington. The investigation involves major characters directly involved in the drama, scientific and legal experts, and top-grade journalists.
