Book summary

This riveting investigation of the unsolved murder of alleged JFK mistress Mary Meyer creates a respectful portrait of an intriguing woman. Against the backdrop of a 1950s and '60s America populated by double-dealing CIA agents, the Eastern social elite, and bored housewives, Meyer is portrayed as a Washington socialite with bohemian roots, who tried LSD with Timothy Leary and smoked marijuana with JFK. The author alleges that Meyer's unsatisfactory marriage to an influential CIA official drove her to pursue other men. As the author exposes the secrets surrounding Meyer's life and death, she unearths more questions than answers.
