Corruption of Blood...Political Thriller



Book : The Corruption of Blood

Author : Robert K. Tanenbaum

Published :

Synopsis : A congressional committee reopens the investigation into the assassination of President Kennedy, and Butch is tapped to lead it. Accompanied by his wife, tough-as-nails prosecutor Marlene Ciampi, into the Washington world of ambiguous allegiances and byzantine conspiracies, he soon stumbles onto ``Evidence of an interest on the part of the CIA to suppress a thorough investigation,'' a mysterious Guatemalan connection that suggests even darker doings in Castro's Cuba than were suspected all along, and the secret history of a JFK colleague and friend whose own nefarious agenda may have involved him in the crime.

Corruption of Blood is a gripping story that draws from author own experience as Deputy Chief Counsel for the U.S. House of Representatives Select Committee on Assassinations.The writing is excellent and there are enough plot twists to keep you turning the pages.
