Description
A darkly imaginative alternative history thriller from Philip Kerr. In 1960, America is on edge as John F Kennedy has just been elected President and Cold War tensions are escalating. With the threat of communism looming, an unlikely figure emerges to carry out a high-stakes assassination: Tom Jefferson, a skilled assassin with ties to the Mafia. But Jefferson's true target may be closer to home than he initially suspects. As paranoia grips the US establishment, the decision to eliminate Castro is made from a surprising quarter - the Mafia. With his unique skillset and lack of qualms about double-crossing his paymasters, Jefferson becomes the perfect man for the job. Yet, as the stakes rise, Jefferson's allegiances are tested in ways he never could have imagined. A gripping thriller that keeps you guessing until the very end, The Shot is a mind-boggling tale of politics, power and betrayal.
