A History of Deceit in the Kennedy Assassination - From the Warren Commission to Bill O'Reilly
A History of Deceit in the Kennedy Assassination - From the Warren Commission to Bill O'Reilly

Review:Okay, putting this one down after the first page. The claim here is that the finger was pointed at Oswald 24 hours after the killing after LBJ and J. Edgar Hoover talked about it. I'm here to tell you I was 12 years old and confined to a hospital bed on 11/22/1963. There was a built in radio in the wall. Around 12 noon some woman popped her head in my room and said "They've killed the President!". I turned on the radio and never stopped listening to it until 10:30 that night. The name OSWALD was...

Invisible Killer: The Monster Behind the Mask
Invisible Killer: The Monster Behind the Mask

Review:Wow! Where to begin... I bought this book after viewing the 48 Hours program entitled Deadly Obsession. I’ve been around the block several times as a psych nurse turned trial lawyer. I can say pretty honestly that I have heard it all at least once so very little shocks me. But Charlie Brandt keeps me awake at night.

I decided I would like to know more, a lot more. The murders of his wife Teri and his niece Michelle suggested this guy had developed a real taste for it. I was skeptical that... Read more

The CIA Conspiracy to Murder John F. Kennedy - and Their Vision for World Peace
The CIA Conspiracy to Murder John F. Kennedy - and Their Vision for World Peace

Review:I have always been intrigued by the assassination of Mary Pinchot Meyer and have followed the accounts of her assasination with great interest over the years, and find that this is the best yet. I also think that if Mr.Janney's findings are accurate we had all better keep and eye on him. Obviously Mr. Janney's motivation in writing this book was his friendship with Mary Meyer's son Michael. To think of the research that must have gone into this is mind boggling. Mary Meyer was also a philanderer... Read more

The Terrifying Story Of A Doctor Who Got Away With Murder
The Terrifying Story Of A Doctor Who Got Away With Murder

Review:"Blind Eye" haunted me for quite awhile after I read it. The book portrays a classic example of evil being assisted by bureaucratic ineptitude. Stewart makes his case that Dr. Michael Swango may be the most prolific serial killer in U.S. history. His case is a compelling page turner that reads like fiction. Even scarier is that Swango is due to be released THIS YEAR. One caution, do not read this book if you are planning to be in the hospital any time soon. You will not find it comforti... Read more

Sleepers
Sleepers

Review:I very seldom write reviews for the Kindle books I read. However, I had to make an exception for "Sleepers"! This was absolutely the best book I have read in a long time. Although this true story was shocking and touching, the author also made me laugh as he recounted his experiences in his Catholic school and the interaction with his friends. My heart goes out to all who had to endure such atrocities while incarcerated. I wish this would be made in to a movie. Read more

Tracking a Spy Through the Maze of Computer Espionage
Tracking a Spy Through the Maze of Computer Espionage

Review:_The Cuckoo's Egg_ has everything most fictional detective novels wish that they had: a personable detective who does not mean to get involved as deeply as he does, federal agencies who cannot seem to take action, and a criminal mastermind who has everybody stumped until he encounters our detective. The best part of this whole book is that it really happened-- a feat that fictional mysteries can never match.

I knew Stoll's work through the more technical article "Stalking the Wily Hacker"... Read more

Real CIA Operatives Reveal How They Stay Safe in a Dangerous World and How You Can Too

Review:This book is very interesting with tips and stories. I liked his original book "Spy Secrets That Can Save Your Life" better as that had more practical application. This one has more stories than practical applications, but it is still good to know info. Read more

Vegas and the Mob: Forty Years of Frenzy
Vegas and the Mob: Forty Years of Frenzy

Review:This is a concise, entertaining, well-written history of the mob's role in the development of Las Vegas. The period covered is from prohibition to present day, with a particular focus on the 1940-1970s when mob influence was greatest. Moe names the main players and tells their stories with energy and verve, moves at a fast pace, and never writes a boring sentence. Names include Capone, Luciano, Anastasia, Lansky, Rothstein, Bugsy Siegel, Virginia Hill, Dave Berman, Sinatra, Giancana, the Kennedy... Read more
