Such a convoluted mosh-mash of stories, many MANY of which were either completely unrelated to one another, or completely irrelevant, all to try and tie a narrative together. It’s undeniably that the Kennedy men (and women) have gotten away with a lot because of their privilege, but this book, through the author’s storytelling techniques actually makes them look as though she is deliberately trying to smear them. Had she simply stuck to the facts, the key people and events, rather than try and associate events completely unrelated to the Kennedy men ( hello, Mike Tyson’s rape sentence?!?!) to throw as many unsavoury stories at the reader/listener is a cheap tactic to confuse timelines and storylines for no purpose other than to unsuccessfully accomplish her goal of making them look as bad as possible. Unfortunately, anyone with a little knowledge of these stories prior to reading this book can easily identify the myriad instances where the author fudges truths or leaves out key information. Don’t bother wasting your time or money on this book.
