It leaves Ashcroft with questions he can't ignore.As the 50th anniversary approaches, he follows a trail through the American South-from Dallas to Austin to New Orleans-chasing overlooked evidence, fading memories, and the ghosts of a history long buried. But the closer he gets to the truth, the more it begins to slip away.The Girl Who Killed Kennedy is a literary thriller that blurs the line between historical fact and buried fiction. Set against the fading light of Cold War America and the long shadow of one of the 20th century's most contested events, it's a story about memory, manipulation, and the cost of uncovering inconvenient truths. For readers drawn to the moral ambiguity of le Carré, the creeping unease of Don DeLillo, and the enduring pull of a mystery that refuses to stay solved.
