Andrew T. McDonald is an award-winning journalist living in the Bluegrass region of Kentucky. He is a graduate of Seattle Pacific University and the University of Southern California. One joy he derives from writing, whether fiction or non-fiction, is exploring the private thoughts of his subjects – their personal struggles, their fears, their dilemmas, and ultimately, their compromises. Michaelangelo described sculpting as one in which the finished product is already within the block of marble, but that the artisan’s task is to chisel away that which is unnecessary. That’s just as true in writing as it is in both sculpting and life.

Duty. Murder. Country.
CIA assassin Richard Tavi follows his orders, whether it’s terminating a would-be dictator overseas or eliminating organized crime figures in the United States. But as a man haunted by a past mission to murder a Hollywood starlet, Tavi faces a critical decision. Will he obey a directive to assassinate President Robert F. Kennedy, or join the president’s secret effort to end the Vietnam War?
Wex Hannon is a courageous but troubled young journalist who is swept up in a deep state plot to remove Kennedy from office. Believing that Tavi is going to assassinate President Kennedy, Hannon is wracked with insecurity, uncertain if she can trust her perception of reality or if she is merely falling victim to her own mental illness. It’s up to Hannon to overcome her crushing self-doubt to save the president and spare the country another national tragedy.
