This non-fiction work about the Kennedy assassination refutes all the popular theories on the assassination and makes a convincing case for whom the real perpetrators might have been. It is both shocking and, at the same time, believable. The author implicates Jacqueline Kennedy and Aristotle Onassis. They were two people who had the means, the motive, and the alibi to commit the perfect murder of all time.

From the Publisher
January Jones has done years of intensive research on this project. Her well-documented and well-researched startling conclusion makes a convincing case for who really could have killed Kennedy. The author has turned up fact after fact to support her theory and a possible solution to the crime of the century. The unspeakable is spoken.
From the Author
I feel that my theory is more important than who wrote it for which reason I have used a pseudonym for this book. History repeats itself and looking back through the ages love triangles have been well documented and many spouses have been eliminated in the name of love and money. This theory makes more sense to me than any other theory so far presented as to Who killed Kennedy?

From Chapter1: He had never been to the White House before and he had been ordered not to even think of setting foot in the United States by the man in the coffin in the East Room. Then, in one quick moment in Dallas, everything had changed for both of these men. One was dead and one was now a welcome guest in this house of mourning.
He had received his official invitation to the funeral from the Chief of Protocol, Angier Biddle Duke, on the direct orders of the grieving widow. He knew that no one would dare challenge or question his presence since he was there at her request. No matter what anyone within the family or staff may have thought. Out of deference to the widow, there would be no unpleasantness. Her decisions on all details whether it be the eternal flame, the riderless horse, or unexpected guests, were final and not to be questioned. She was in charge here and everyone knew it. He was not there to mourn but to silently slowly move through this sea of sorrow in a respectful, inconspicuous manner. He was not accustomed to explaining anything to anyone and he would not start now. He preferred to slip quietly into the background and take on the role of discreet supporter. He was there for only one person and for only one reason. She needed and wanted him there with her. No one knew it then, but they were the perfect pair. They not only needed each other, they deserved each other.
History will tell us what happens when the world's greediest woman meets the world's wealthiest social climber. Or course, they will be attracted to each other and embark on a perilous course just to be together. It will not be an easy journey. They know that, but their eyes are blinded to reality. They must possess each other since each of them has exactly what the other one wants. The woman in this scenario is none other than the beloved Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy, one of the world's most admired women from the moment she arrived on the political scene with her husband, the dashing Senator John F. Kennedy of Massachusetts. The entire country and most of the world fell in love with this fabulous couple. As they stepped on center stage, they captured the hearts and souls of their country in their pursuit of the White House. They were quite a spectacular couple. They were wealthy beyond belief and they were good-looking too. Jackie was especially enchanting in the eyes of the world. She shone like a bright light and everything about her seemed so right. Jackie had good looks, good breeding, an aristocratic appeal and an incredibly handsome husband. Their children were adorable and their life together was the kind that fairy tales are made of. Jackie had style and class and wore her clothes in such a way that she became the style-setter of the era. Everyone tried to copy the Jackie look. Her picture on any book or magazine was guaranteed to insure an immediate sellout. She was the golden girl and she could do no wrong. Everything she said, did or wore made headlines all over the world. But while everyone sat back in awe of her, some things were carefully kept from her adoring public: her difficult childhood, her compulsive smoking and nail-biting, her lack of wealth, growing up as the poor stepsister in one of the wealthiest families in the country and, most of all, the sham of a marriage with JFK the compulsive womanizer. The electro-shock therapy to treat her depression and mood swings and the drug dependency she shared with her husband were kept secret, and, finally, her desperate compulsive need to become a wealthy, independent woman. She would never be at peace until she had enough of her own money to not have to grovel to others for her security. .........Her destiny appeared in the form of Aristotle Onassis who was one of the wealthiest men of the time. Their meeting was inevitable and nothing could keep them from each other. ..........The plan was simple. The President could have his precious political immortality, become a legend, and Jackie could have her freedom. Along with her freedom, Jackie would have total privacy with Ari and be done with politics forever. She would have all the money she would ever need, a husband who would take great joy in seeing her spend it anyway she chose. She would have a husband who would not only love her beyond her wildest dreams but would indulge her all the days of her life. He would never divorce her or abandon her. It is hard to imagine any woman not being seduced by this incredible offer, especially one who has strong survival instincts. Onassis knew how to tap into Jackie's deepest fears. He was the answer to her prayers and with his unsavory background who better than Onassis. He would procure the best that money could buy and there would never be a trail leading back to either Ari or Jackie. They would be the best professionals in the world and everything would be carefully worked out. Jackie would not be involved in anyway. Ari would take care of every detail All she had to do was agree? This is a new theory. No one can prove that it didn't take place. It is a possibility of what would happen if the world's greediest, neediest woman meets the world's wealthiest man.
It is so simple...... a murder for a marriage!.

It's a shame that a tree was cut down for this book!
Ugh! What an awful book! It hurt to give it even one star. I guess people will believe anything.
This book was great---for putting you to sleep!
This book was so poorly researched that it obviously was done by an amatuer writer. If we are expected to believe this fantasy at least back up the theory with some REAL RESEARCH. This thrown together book did not deserve even one star.
Not the first book -- or the most convincing -- to say this.
An interesting theory, BUT it's hardly the first convincing book on the subject! PassionGate, by Joanne Brown (also available through amazon.com) was published in 1997... the theory there is that Onassis became obsessed with Jackie during her pre-assassination cruise on the Christina in October 1963. Then Onassis, through his Mafia-connected assistant Johnny Meyer, orchestrated JFK's assassination. Jackie did NOT know about it, but found out in 1973, 4 years after marrying Onassis. She was shocked... to say the least. That book makes more sense than this one. PassionGate also proves that Onassis killed Bobby Kennedy as well, because he would not give Jackie permission to marry Onassis...
