    About this audiobook

    Did J. Edgar Hoover die a natural death? Or was he murdered? When a group of high-minded and high-placed intellectuals known as Inver Brass detect a monstrous threat to the country in Hoover's unethical use of his scandal-ridden private files, they decide to do away with him-quietly, efficiently, with no hint of impropriety. Then bestselling thriller writer Peter Chancellor stumbles onto information that makes his previous books look like harmless fairy tales. Now Chancellor and Inver Brass are on a deadly collision course, spiraling across the globe in an ever-widening arc of violence and terror. All roads lead to a showdown that will rip the nation's capital apart-leaving only one damning document to survive.

      A must-read for anyone interested in what it was like growing up Black in 1920's rural America. About the author: Gordon Parks, born in 1912, was already a world-renowned photojournalist for Life Magazine and fashion photographer for Vogue Magazine when this autobiographical novel was published in 1969. He later directed the Hollywood film of the same name. By the end of his life, he had been a true Renaissance man...photographer, director, poet, author, composer, film scorer...even created a ballet.
    • 5/5
      The Learning Tree by Gordon Parks is a story about being a black kid in the south long before the days of Civil Rights. It's funny in places and very sad in others. If you want to know how lucky you are today, read this book.
    • 5/5
      I grew up in southeast Kansas so this book was particularly interesting to me. It holds some of the best geographical descriptions of the southeastern part of the state. Though racially not accepted as a child, Fort Scott has now embraced the author as a favorite son. He is now buried in the place he always called home.
    • 5/5
      Along with The Bourne Identity, my favorite Ludlum novel. I have a 20 year old paperback, sans cover, yellowed, pages missing. A favorite vacation re-read. Exciting, suspenseful, deliciously convoluted, and, as always with Ludlum, written passionately from a sense of anger at injustice and abuse of power.
    • 4/5
      A wonderful conspiracy tale with an interesting twist or two. A difficult book to review without spoiling some of the fun.
