The Overview:\u00a0 Beware of Spoilers\u2026<\/p>\n

When Robert Kennedy asks Nate Heller to be his bodyguard, Heller agrees.\u00a0 How could he refuse?\u00a0 Nate and Bobby had been friends for years.\u00a0 Plus security is a service that Heller and his agency provides.\u00a0 Nate agreed even when Bobby’s demands made protecting him nearly impossible.\u00a0 “No guns” and Nate as the only bodyguard. That’s how Nate Heller came to be present when Robert Kennedy was assassinated.<\/p>\n

Of course the conspiracy theories started almost immediately.\u00a0 The same people who killed John Kennedy got to Robert.\u00a0 It was the mafia, the C.I.A., the… you fill in the blank.\u00a0 It was a conspiracy.\u00a0 There’s no way it was a lone gunman.\u00a0 Heller didn’t buy into any of it.\u00a0 He was there.\u00a0 Hell, he was one of the first to grab Sirhan Sirhan as the little murderer was still firing.\u00a0 No, they got the right guy.<\/p>\n

Then Heller begins to hear things that don’t add up.\u00a0 The number of bullets for instance.\u00a0 By almost every account, there were more bullets fired than Sirhan’s gun could hold.\u00a0 There were witnesses who saw more than one gunman.\u00a0 Their reports were dismissed without merit.\u00a0 Plus Sirhan Sirhan’s lawyer didn’t present evidence that could have brought doubt as to if he acted alone.\u00a0 Then there were the questionable characters all around the periphery of the assassination.\u00a0 Even though Nate was there, he was starting to have questions.<\/p>\n

So Nate Heller decides to do his own investigation.\u00a0 What he discovers isn’t in any history book and just might get him killed.<\/p>\n

+++++<\/p>\n

I’m a huge fan of Max Allan Collins’ Nate Heller series. \u00a0Heller is a fictional detective who finds himself in the middle of real crimes. \u00a0Heller ages in real time as the series progresses. His tales are fiction mixed with extensive research and historical fact. Heller has been in the mix on everything from the Lindbergh baby kidnapping\/murder to the suspicious death of Marilyn Monroe and much more. It’s fun watching Heller interact with famous (and infamous) folks right out of our history books. Equally enjoyable is Collins’ take on the crimes and what may have really happened.<\/p>\n

TOO MANY BULLETS is another great addition to the Nate Heller legacy.\u00a0 It gets my highest recommendation.<\/p>\n
