The Kennedy Moment
The Kennedy Moment | Peter Adamson
2 posts | 1 read
‘Nothing could be simpler... Don’t wear a suit’ Dr Michael Lowell—a mild–mannered American, unshakeably decent and at the top of his profession—accepts an invitation to a weekend reunion of Oxford college friends. He is looking forward to meeting some of them—including front-line Canadian medic Hélène Hevré and the Australian advertising genius Toby Jenks. But the big attraction is the serene young woman from Karachi who rejected him twenty years ago because he was ‘just a little bit too dull’. As the weekend gets under way and old loves and tensions arise, an audacious suggestion is made. It begins as a joke. But it is a joke that none of them can forget. Moving between Oxford, New York, Washington, Geneva and Abidjan, this compelling political thriller is the story of five ordinary people who find themselves drawn into an extraordinary conspiracy—a gamble that could force the hand of governments and affect the lives of millions. But if it should go wrong ... Daring, ingenious and profoundly moving, The Kennedy Moment is masterful storytelling from an author whose career has put him at the heart of international affairs.

I love a good conspiracy thriller and while this was not quite what I had expected, it proved to be highly entertaining and enjoyable. See my Goodreads review at: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/37953215-the-kennedy-moment.

Easing into the week in fine fashion, with a great breakfast at Bibi‘s Cafe, St Andrews, and a marvellous book, with an extra savour of serendipity as I chose it at random from @dauntbooks. This is a chilling medical thriller, with a great plot and characters I feel I already know. #book #books #bookstagram #currentlyreading #peteradamson #thekennedymoment #coffee #booksandcoffee #coffeeandbooks #bibiscafe #standrews #scotland #fife #i💙scotland
