The Fifth Assassin
The Fifth Assassin | Brad Meltzer
13 posts | 11 read | 10 to read
From John Wilkes Booth to Lee Harvey Oswald, there have been more than two dozen assassination attempts on the President of the United States. Four have been successful. But now, Beecher White--the hero of the #1 New York Times bestseller The Inner Circle--discovers a killer in Washington, D.C., who's meticulously re-creating the crimes of these four men. Historians have branded them as four lone wolves. But what if they were wrong? Beecher is about to discover the truth: that during the course of a hundred years, all four assassins were secretly working together. What was their purpose? For whom do they really work? And why are they planning to kill the current President? Beecher's about to find out. And most terrifyingly, he's about to come face-to-face with the fifth assassin.

A great read, with the Culper Circle. Fast paced and I had a hard time putting it down! Interesting twists and how childhood/teenage years influenced the adult men.

Finished this one up this morning while making zucchini bread! It was not my favorite book, but definitely had me on the edge of my seat a few times wondering how everything would turn out. I will be checking out the third, and most recent, book in the series to see what happens next.

I wish I had realized before I started reading that there was a first book in this series- it would have clarified some basic backstory. But regardless, this was a well written thriller with a great historical twist, centering around presidential assassins. I will definitely check out the other books on this series! 4 🌟

Checking out a new (to me) author. I bought this on a whim at a used book sale a couple of months ago. Sounds intriguing!

I asked #Coale to pick a book from the #libraryhaul book sale, and he chose this one. I guess he watched a little too much "Decoded" with us. But we are History Channel fans in this house ???.

DeborahSmall He's great! Good Choice 8y
LauraBeth At least he didn't pick "Tomcat In Love" ? 8y
Lynnsoprano And it is a good read. Coalesce has good taste 😀 8y

This book was the first I'd read by Melter, and now I plan to read more. It was like a Dan Brown novel in my mind, and I enjoyed the history, suspense, and mystery woven into the story.
