Young Jack Kennedy is tasked by President Roosevelt with unearthing some secrets at the onset of WWII. His journey takes him to Europe, where he is chased by enemy agents, embarks on a passionate love affair, and seeks to possess something which threatens to unravel his family's legacy.

This was a fast-paced thriller. I don't normally go for historical fiction centered on such well-known personalities. However, this one felt right. The author got the "real" characters right and the whole thing just worked.

Fun reading.

I loved seeing Jane's nephew Edward take a somewhat prominent place in this tale. The murder happens in a boys school and the insights into how those schools were run was fascinating. I also enjoyed the twisty turns in pursuit of a motive. The saddest part was Jane's increasing illness and her dashed hopes that she could somehow afford more competent medical advice.
