Poking Fun Winter Kills Book Review
Richard Condon's thriller follows Nick Thirkield, half brother of assassinated President Timothy Regan, unraveling a conspiracy behind the president's death. A cast of scientists, labor leaders, film stars, and oil barons weave a fast paced, flashback rich tale with political satire and sharp twists. The pursuit hinges on why the crime occurred as power and industry shape the mystery.
