RFK MUST DIE: Chasing the Mystery of the Robert Kennedy Assassination - Softcover

Kennedy and his entourage had been celebrating his victory in the California primary for the Democratic nomination for President. Everybody knew that Sirhan was the assassin. But was there a wider conspiracy? Did the FBI truly solve the crime? After working his way deep inside the investigation—and spending more than two hundred hours in direct conversation with Sirhan—Robert Blair Kaiser wrote the quintessential book on Robert Kennedy’s murder. Now, forty years after the assassination, Kaiser has rewritten his analytic epic, probing anew into one of the most mystifying tragedies of our day. Widely recognized as an important contribution to the literature of political assassinations and as primary document on the tragedy of R.F.K.’s death forty years ago, R.F.K. Must Die! is more than ever a stunning look into the mind of a killer and the substance of an assassination.

Clare Booth Luce discovered Kaiser when he was a young reporter for the Arizona Republic in Phoenix. Soon he was covering the Second Vatican Ecumenical Council in Rome, winning prizes and plaudits for his inside reporting on the progress of Pope John's push to bring the Church up to date. He's done five books on the post-conciliar Church and a dozen others on various other obsessions. He wrote on the assassination of Robert Kennedy in R.F.K. Must Die!" as well as two novels, Cardinal Mahony and Razzle Dazzle.
