Publisher Description
From a #1 New York Times bestselling author, Beecher White must stop a killer in Washington, D.C. who's meticulously re-creating the crimes of four notorious assassins.
From John Wilkes Booth to Lee Harvey Oswald, there have been more than two dozen assassination attempts on the President of the United States. Four have been successful.
Historians have branded them as four lone wolves. But what if they were wrong?
Beecher is about to discover the truth: that during the course of a hundred years, all four assassins were secretly working together.
What was their purpose? For whom do they really work? And why are they planning to kill the current President?
Beecher's about to find out. And most terrifyingly, he's about to come face-to-face with the fifth assassin.
"Meltzer's fans will enjoy the usual sprinkling of history factoids, fast-paced writing and the double-whiplash bombshell conclusion." —Kirkus Reviews

Not My Favorite
The story line was hard to follow. It kept jumping back to the past with no apparent connection. Most of it comes together at the end, but some loose ends remain.
