It's fun to compare with current politicians as well!

... Margaret Truman has woven together her knowledge of Washingtonpolitics and a great mystery in "Murder at the Kennedy Center."And she sure knows how to interweave a complicated plot. As soonas Mac agrees to take a ace, he runs into countless problems:Senator Ewald, it seems, has not be as...his political supporters might believe; ...Soon a South American dictator and a conservative evangelist muddy the waters even more. As Mac delves deeper into the mystery, he learns more about hisfriend than perhaps he had wanted to know. In a short period oftime, he has a long list of suspects!Truman has done an excellent job of creating vivid characters anddeveloping a plot that will keep you alert. She has also managedto mirror a number of contemporary politicians and headlines inthis novel; I think you'll have fun deciding who is beingmodeled.

Combines murder and political intrique

The description of a Democratic party gala is described with the intimacy of one who has actually attended such an affair. It is for this reason that the reader trusts the author in the other relevant portions of the plotting and structure of this well-told tale of mayhem in our nation's capital. This is a fine addition to the author's stunning series of mystery novels using the backdrop of the great institutions of Washington, D. C.

Thoroughly enjoyable

I've just discovered Margaret Truman and am enjoying every minute of her writing. Not only does she write a good mystery but she entices me with her detailed descriptions of life in Washington D.C. Mac and Annabelle are becoming "good friends". I'm looking forward to reading the next in the series.

This was another of Truman's great books!!
