Mary Bloom

Michael Savella, a burned-out war correspondent, goes to ground writing obituaries at a small newspaper in Atlantic City and is struggling to hold his job when he's involved in a minor accident that leaves a woman named Mary Bloom dead. Intrigued by the empty church at her funeral, Savella tries to find someone who knew her - a search quickly fueled by the discovery in her bedroom of a photograph of Jack Ruby and a tattered address book with forty years of phone numbers for a Catholic priest who doesn't recognize her name. With the help of a reluctant police detective, Savella crosses paths with three men haunted by their role in the assassination of President Kennedy - an ex-Army colonel living in bitter retirement on a Caribbean mountaintop, a corrupt casino owner scheming to reclaim his father's lost empire, and a legendary Cuban assassin confronting his own imminent death as he launches one final act of terror: the bombing of an Atlantic City casino. And before it's over, Savella discovers the truth about the assassination of a president.
