JAMES PATTERSON'S NON-FICTION MASTERPIECE
________________________________
Kennedys were always taught to win at all costs. And they did - but the costs were unimaginable . . .
Across decades and generations, the Kennedys have been a family of charismatic adventurers, raised to take risks and excel. Their name is synonymous with American royalty. Their commitment to public service is legendary. But, for all the successes, the family has been blighted by assassinations, fatal accidents, drug and alcohol abuse and sex scandals.
To this day, the Kennedys occupy a unique, contradictory place in the world's imagination: at once familiar and unknowable; charmed and cursed. The Kennedy Curse is a revealing, fascinating account of America's most famous family, as told by the world's most trusted storyteller.

APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
Take the most scandalous thriller you’ve ever come across, and ratchet up the scandal and scarcely-believable twists several notches. You’ll have then come close to the drama and intrigue of James Patterson’s deep dive into one of America’s most iconic families. While due respect and consideration is given to the assassinations of President John F. Kennedy and his brother Bobby, it’s perhaps the lesser-known Kennedys that provide the most immediate intrigue in this exhilarating listen. Whether it’s the plane crashes, the celebrity partners or the general sense of a family surely under some kind of hex, we couldn’t stop listening—in no small part to brilliant narration from David Pittu.
