John A. Russo is known as the "living legend" with 20 published books world wide and 19 feature films which include Return of the Living Dead, Midnight, The Majorettes, The Awakening, and Heartstopper.
By reading the back of the book you quickly learn about a young group of conspiracy buffs who go to Texas where the assassination of President Kennedy happened to film a reenactment. When I started reading the book I felt the book was going at a good pace and kept me wanting to see what happens. In the first few chapters you learn about 4 killings, that become the first of many murders in the book. After the murders take place the book, I felt, had slowed down quite a bit. You will notice that the book takes you through the Kennedy, Johnson, Nixon and Ford, Carter, Reagan, Bush[SR.], Clinton, and Bush[JR.] administrations to the end of the book. As you keep reading you learn that what happened on that day in 1964 would lead up to horrific events 40 years later. There is many mentions of racism, violence, and similarities to that of Hitler in Nazi Germany.

As I mentioned above I enjoyed reading this book for the first few chapters, up until right after the murders took place. After that I felt that it had slowed down, too much for my liking. There was a lot of going back and forth and I think that there should have been more focus on a specific character, as well as have more engaging moments to keep the reader going. Overall I think the plot of the book was great, just needed a little "oomph".
I received this product for free for reviewing purposes. All opinions are my own.
