Customer Reviews

A symptom of the disease

This book was a page turner. Ron Brown was a product of this times. A misguided man who used race instead of his talent to get ahead. His biggest mistake was getting involved with Bill and Hillary Clinton. They used him like a cheap car. He became Bill's "bag man" collecting untold thousands of dollars from foreign governments to finance Clinton's relection campaign. And when things got tight, they discarded him. Ron Brown's story, while sad, is better read an indictment of the most corrupt Administration in the history of the United States.

Could not put this book down

This book is well written and well researched. This author tells the good and the bad about Ron Brown and how money corrupts. If a reader notes all the facts regarding Browns death that were buried and evidence that was trashed, it is amazing that the mainstream media did not jump all over this. Clintons reelection was the only goal and Brown was about to spill the beans.. I will leave the rest for any reader to review and make their own mind up. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and would recommend it to anyone with an open mind...

Page Turner

Even though you know how it ends you can't help but be fascinated. All the footnotes references help add credibility to a political thriller. In a way it is a scary book of what can happen to the moral compass of some Washington lawyers.

Revelations and Connections

No matter what one's political leanings are, a discerning reader will find both the factual and theoretical information presented in this book intriguing. The author writes in a style I can best describe as clear and powerful: he does not get bogged down in over-explanation of facts, and the unfolding events leading up to Secretary Brown's death read like a gripping suspense novel...except these events are well-documented NON-fiction. The author's exhaustive research and hours of interviews with the people in Ron Brown's world are thoroughly documented. As I read what had happened in the years prior to his death, I made my own connections and theories. The author, Mr. Cashill, did not preach, and did not press theories and proposed scenarios as truth. Mr. Cashill respects the reader...respects the reader's intelligence and deduction skills. I must highly recommend this book: you will not be bored, you will find it hard to put down, you will learn a lot, what you already know will be reinforced, and you will want to talk to others about it.

Weaving events together

In this eye-opening book, Jack Cashill painstakingly brings together seemingly unrelated events to form a stunning account of the fortuitous (for the Clintons) death of Ron Brown. Even those who think they know the dark side of the Clinton administration will learn new facts. The author's unlimited access to Nolanda Hill provides him with previously unknown aspects of Ron Brown's career and his exploitation by the Clintons. The author is not a wild-eyed conspiracist. He seems more to be a dogged researcher and an even-handed writer who simply lays it out for the reader to learn and decide for himself.
