Oath of Office
by: Michael Palmer
I won this book on a LibraryThing giveaway
A man going on a killing spree of 7 people then turning the gun on himself is not unheard of in today's society. It’s sad but true. This book touches on a conspiracy revolving around this incident which even reaches to the President of the United States.
I don’t want to give to much away so I’ll add my thoughts on it. The characters are believable people and I love that the main character, Dr. Lou Welcome, doesn’t just believe what he’s told even when the facts are so hard to dispute. I read this book in one day into the wee hours. I couldn’t put it down and I never do that. But I should warn you that because of the subject of this book and how true to life it could be, it can be unsettling to think it may actually be happening in the real world today.
I normally am not really found of crime novel or conspiracy novels so to speak. I like them, but they are usually not my favorites. I have to say that this one has changed my mind on that. I know I can only give it 5 stars but I really think it deserves more. What really sucked me into this book is that it could really happen today (if it hasn’t already). If you have a chance to read this, I highly recommend it.
