Description
Aristotle Onassis's life was one of dizzying wealth and twisted intrigue. His orbit captivated the world when biographer Peter Evans first revealed it in 1986, but Onassis himself hinted that there was more to his story - a tale of deadly consequences. This book delves into the tangled thread of events that bound Onassis to two of the world's most powerful men: Bobby Kennedy and Jackie's husband. A bitter rivalry emerged between Bobby and Onassis long before they met, fueled by Onassis's shady dealings with international trade and his attempts to control Saudi Arabia's oil. Their power struggle unfolded against a backdrop of intrigue, including Onassis's love affair with Lee Radziwill, the sister of the First Lady he later wooed. The story reveals how these men struggled to break each other's spell over the woman who held the key to their futures. As Onassis navigated his complex web of relationships and ambitions, a deadly game of cat and mouse played out between him and the Kennedys. This book uncovers the surprising role played by the woman they both loved, and the intense hatred that drove these two powerful men against each other.
