About this ebook
From the creators of the hit podcast of the same name, Who Killed JFK? unravels a tangled web of evidence—including recently declassified documents, rare interview transcripts, and existing expert research—and presents the definitive analysis of the Kennedy assassination.
Since the fateful day in Dallas on November 22, 1963, journalists, historians, and investigators have examined the official record of the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, yet a clear and conclusive explanation has remained elusive. Until now.
Synthesizing decades of research with original investigative work, Rob Reiner, David Hoffman, and Dick Russell reconstruct the assassination with scholarly rigor and narrative urgency. As the conspiracy unfolds, we find a botched autopsy, two compromised investigations, numerous suspicious deaths, and countless cover-ups within the very institutions charged with uncovering the truth. This book assembles the long-scattered fragments of the investigation into a coherent and riveting case and finally decodes America’s greatest murder mystery.
At a time when political violence and distrust in the government are reaching new highs, this answer—and the reasons why—may be more important than ever.
