In 1977, the United States House of Representatives Select Committee on the Assassination of John F. Kennedy spent over a year investigating the events before, during and after the assassination and their official conclusion was conspiracy killed President Kennedy.
A Sentence of Death is a step back into time and history. The novel is a meld of historical fact and fiction surrounding the assassination, stimulating the reader to a thought provoking analysis of what could have happened before and after that fateful day in Dallas, Texas.
Fifteen years after the assassination, the U.S Congress re-opened the Kennedy investigation. Their findings “…the facts suggest that President Kennedy was killed as the direct result of a conspiracy.” This work offers plausible answers to the who, what, when, where and how of the assassination.
The character and action driven historical fiction novel creates an atmosphere of intrigue, treason, murder, cover-up, and eventual, but delayed disclosure of the men responsible for the death of a President.
A Sentence of Death Words that Killed a President eBook Robert Shows
Great read! I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It was my first "digital book purchase" and I was very pleased. The story is laid out in a very systematic way, but there are enough twists and turns in the plot to keep you glued to the pages. I read this both on my computer and my smartphone. It was a relief to know that it kept track of where I was in the story and I didn't have to "find my place".Very well written tale. I highly recommend. It is absolutely worth purchasing.
I hope they make it into a movie!

A Sentence of Death Words that Killed a President eBook Robert Shows Reviews
Really enjoyed the book . Finished in two nights and would recommend this for any interested in JFK. Veri informative and really makes you think.
A Sentence of Death Words that Killed a President (Robert Shows, Ecanus Publishing, 2012)
Another book about the assassination of President Kennedy is apt, for anyone living that awful November day, to produce the yawn factor; not so the version of that event and its aftermath in Robert Shows' novel A Sentence of Death. I have no idea about Dr. Shows' ability in the emergency room, where he practiced for many years, or in his medical office where he still holds forth, but I can testify to his ability as a writer.
This doctor can write, and if you are a fan of the character driven suspense novel, then this history-laced book is for you. It is a page turner, and even though I still can see in my haunted vision the events of that day in Dallas, as I was reading the pages leading up to the sound of the gunfire, I still hoped that someone or something would intervene. The story does not end in Dallas, however, but extends over a period of almost 25 years and finally in Vicksburg.
In between, the reader travels to New Orleans in prose so vivid, you'll want to call and make reservations, to a Davis Island camp in the Mississippi, precious to southerners whose sense of place contains the acknowledgement of evil in our most loved places. This novel is global, however, for those who like to look around and meet interesting characters wherever you are.
The premise that Kennedy's assassination was set in motion by an off-hand remark by the then Assistant Director of the FBI might seem slim, but so were the many ideas of a conspiracy that ultimately destroyed many other lives. That we, after so many years, still argue about conspiracies and cringe when we hear the words Dealey Plaza, certainly shows the power the assassination still has to haunt us. And in this novel, the realization, that one assassination calls for another and another so that no witness can be left behind, says something vital about the perpetuation of any evil act. The easy disregard for human life mirrors today's society and will leave the reader breathless with fear.
The strength of this book is in its characters, all people we have met or think we know ruthless politicians, hungry for power and filled with such hubris, the arrogance of their crimes against the country and its people seem today taken right out of the news. Mafia figures and people on the fringe who feel a type of misplaced devotion, the Jack Rubys among us, we've learned to live with in a sort of hopeless resignation. But characters in this work, living with regret and remorse after one ill-fated decision and who ultimately have to pay, can still draw from us a knowing sympathy.
And there are the ordinary people, trying to keep marriages together and friendships secured and children safe who grace this extraordinary novel characters who go about making the movements of life with no idea that they will be thrust into violence but who exhibit courage and skill beyond their own imaginings when confronted with people from our worst nightmare. That the main character is an emergency room doctor will not be lost on us, we who long to be the hero of our own adventure.
So find a place where you won't be disturbed and start reading. You will love this book.
The author had a book signing at Pentimento, my favorite bookstore, on Saturday, March 30.
Awesome read. An ultra-credible conspiracy theory, especially to a 60's young person; then, the development of flaws in the conspiracy cover-up and the chance convergence with the Kilmut family; pure "white-knuckle" excitement as the plot builds to the climax. Extremely well written Dr. Shows exhibits a knowledge of history, medicine, people, travel, and places. Especially enjoyed the Kilmut's New Orleans trip.
Excellent reading!! I was a freshman in high school when President Kennedy was assassinated. This book revealed historical facts and then took you on a journey behind the scenes of maybes..... I felt I was on the outside looking in as the story unfolded. Being from the South, I was able to relate to almost everything in the book....New Orleans, deer camps, Vicksburg, and even the road trip to Washington. Not only is this an EXCELLENT BOOK but it would be a THRILLING MOVIE!!!!!!!!
I am thoroughly enjoying this read. Who doesn't have theories about the Kennedy assassination? The characters are well developed and very believable. The complex plot elements are skillfully interwoven. Since I am still 20% from the end I can't give it away, but that's OK because you really want to read this one yourself.
