Blackstone

Washington liaison Bill Ruddy and mob boss Sam Giancana lay out the plan at a secluded Wisconsin fishing cabin. The "hit" will take place at Chicago's historic Blackstone Hotel, scheduled to host a Democratic fund-raiser in October. The plot twists from an assassination conspiracy into a dangerous love triangle involving a veteran Chicago cop, an idealistic Cuban assassin, and an innocent young woman who falls in love with the wrong man. Was Dallas really the first attempt on JFK's life? Vito Brancato weaves together true characters and situations to give Blackstone an eerie sense of possibility.
