Overview
Scott Brick, with his rich baritone and impeccable pacing, delivers a commanding performance of a riveting, unconfirmed WWII incident.” —AudioFileon The Nazi Conspiracy
From the New York Times bestselling authors of The Nazi Conspiracy and The Lincoln Conspiracy comes a true, little-known story about the first assassination attempt on John F. Kennedy, right before his inauguration.
Kennedy, the thirty-fifth president of the United States, is often ranked among Americans’ most well-liked presidents. Yet what most Americans don’t know is that JFK’s historic presidency almost ended before it began—at the hands of a disgruntled sociopathic loner armed with dynamite.
On December 11, 1960, shortly after Kennedy’s election and before his inauguration, a retired postal worker named Richard Pavlick waited in his car—a parked Buick—on a quiet street in Palm Beach, Florida. Pavlick knew the president-elect’s schedule. He knew when Kennedy would leave his house. He knew where Kennedy was going. From there, Pavlick had a simple plan—one that could’ve changed the course of history.
Written in the gripping style that is the hallmark of Brad Meltzer and Josh Mensch’s bestselling series, this is a slice of history vividly brought to life. Meltzer and Mensch are at the top of their game with this brilliant exploration of what could’ve been for one of the most compelling leaders of the 20th century.

This is a story that will make you gasp, cry and want to hit someone. I love how the authors create such emotion in a nonfiction book. This is what I love about Brad Meltzer. His nonfiction books read like novels. There is true life to the characters. Yes, they were real people, but a lot of times, authors miss this part of the story. Not Meltzer and Mensch.
This is well researched and to be honest, I want to know more. And he briefly touches on something in the assignation, I wonder if anybody else picks up on it. Not going to say a word here…you need to read this to find out.
Scott Brick is my favorite narrator of all time. And he is perfect for this book..HECK…he is perfect for any book!
