Goodbye Natalie Goodbye Splendour is the poignant story of a young, cavalier adventurer, Dennis Davern, who landed the position of Splendour Captain and how the Wagner family welcomed him into their hearts and home. Natalie’s death in 1981 sent shock waves throughout the world and remained an enduring mystery. Dennis reached out to me, his friend, and my mission to substantiate Dennis's account led me on a personal quest for truth that spanned decades. Many of the lingering questions are solved.

Natalie Wood
Natalie Wood was the first actress I ever called a favorite. I was 10 years old when I became a fan. My reaction to her death felt like a punch to the stomach when I heard she had, of all things, been found drowned in the ocean! I had seen her in interviews talking about her fear of water, and read about her fear in articles. That, above all else, was the first thing that caused me to be vastly curious about the details surrounding how something so tragic could have happened. I did not ask, nor seek, to be in the position of writing about her...a task I sometimes felt was beyond me. Your messages and comments (mostly via email) are truly appreciated. Thank you. Marti
