This mystery murder is quite believable and could very well taken place in any city or a town anywhere in the near past or now, today. Because it's a murder and a classical fraudulent cover up. Involving police, wealthy persons and so-called health providers and their insurers... So the plot (story line) is engaging. However, again, the text is full of slang and confusing language. Because of it, or on its own. The TV serial " The Murder, She Wrote", is much better, overall, than the books.

To my view, the plot is bizarre and totally not believable. Text is full of errors. A young woman had committed a crime for which she can never be acquitted or at least, understood. I didn't like the book at all.

Very weird plot or I guess, one that for some readers fits the Season. Not so for me. Writing is poor, full of grammatical and stylistic errors on each and every page. And slang is in abundance, unfortunately. Some phrases just do not make sense-example on page 218 on the bottom. The ansamble of characters on the side of law is well known to us all from TV series and is great ! And that's why I've given this title a 2.

I found the book very interesting in its historical and judgmental sense, both. The discussion offered is marvelous, if somewhat lengthy and confusing at many instances because of the language of that period... And also, because the text goes back and force instead of going in one direction only. So the language is confusing. But the volume brings the last Trial as brilliantly as possible ! And in the end of it, the defendant in murder trial judged as Innocent ...and goes free. And his future strongly reminds me of the legendary Cain, whom God punished by ...but I will not spill the beans here - you all know the legend. This book is a must in my view !

Perhaps, because I have chosen to approach something I wasn't qualified to read: I wasn't born in America, but lived here enough though to be interested in life and death of President John F. Kennedy, this material was "too much to chew" for me. However, the author evolves all the events around one thing and one thing only: the Bay of Pigs... As well as pointing blame for all unsuccessful escapades and coup against Communist regime of Cuba...on President Kennedy. I think, it's totally unfair, plus, small portion of the text devoted to assassination of President, is also negligent in details, reasons and sources...As far as "coloring" the President's private life, I would first of all omit the suggestions about him being a "womanizer" and if it's already done by author, then bring forward that of his spouse, as well. Also, President suffered immeasurable awful pain in his back. Constantly !. For which he had to take strong medications, possibly narcotics-proscribed by doctor. These medications Do tend to effect one's attitude, state of mind and moods as they accumulate in brain matter. So to me, the book didn't answer questions I had and left confused. But then, again, I may have been not qualified for it. Anyway, I found it very one-sided.
