Twists and Turns,
This review is from: Sixty-three Closure (Paperback)
I must have read this book about 4 times by now. A book you will not be able to put down.Hitchin and Tufnell Park sound like the most unlikely place to set the scene for a JFK assignation plot. However, aren't all conspiracy theories slightly ridiculous? The ending is not what you expect either. This book is often dark, sometime funny, but overall a great read.
5.0 out of 5 stars

This review is from: Sixty-three Closure (Paperback)
Because I did not find it so clear myself, I wish to point out that you will read a novel, a spy novel in fact, although one in which the main character is not an agent.
This having been said, the book is very well written and has a finale no one would probably think about. In terms of research the book shows a great work from his author (indeed he co-wrote a sort of bibliography about the JFK assassination). Strongly recommended and, in my opinion, second only to Frewin's London Blues.

The truth may be out there somewhere .. but not in this story,
By Barton Keyes "barton keyes" (England) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sixty-three Closure (Paperback)
This is a passable piece of hokum for a couple of wet afternoons but it really isn't anything to get excited about.
If you want a detailed description of the urban topography of Hitchin (?!) then this the place to go -- but it sits oddly in a thriller. The main character acts very oddly in some of the situations -- which can only be partly explained by his consumption of prodigious quantities of vodka. He also has a memory that approximates a sieve (probably again due to the vodka habit) which means that he misses glaringly obvious plot devices which are announced in the story then dropped -- only to be picked up again to cement two unlikely events together, a few pages later. The prospect that the blurb on the dust-jacket holds out for final resolution was what kept me reading. And in the end I felt cheated but I have to agree with one of the reviews -- the assassination in Dealey Plaza will never seem the same again. I shall never be able to think of it again without thinking of Hitchin.
