About this listen

A gripping and unforgettable true story of bravery and patriotism in the face of bitter hatred.

Abraham Bolden was a young African American Secret Service agent in Chicago when he was asked by John F. Kennedy himself to join the White House Secret Service detail. For Bolden, it was a dream come true—and an encouraging sign of the charismatic president's vision for a new America.

But the dream quickly turned sour. Bolden found himself regularly subjected to open hostility and blatant racism, and he was appalled by the White House team's irresponsible approach to security. In the wake of JFK's assassination, Bolden sought to expose the agency's negligence, only to find himself the victim of a sinister conspiracy. The Echo from Dealey Plaza is the story of the terrible price paid by one man for his commitment to truth and justice.

If there was any doubt the U.S. government, judicial system, and criminal justice system are incapable of conspiring to destroy innocent people, this book obliterates that notion. A critical piece of omitted history at the root of the JFK assassination, this heart wrenching story of betrayal and cover ups will make your soul cry and blood boil.

It always surprises me when I lived through an event I knew nothing about. Very interesting story but unfortunately not surprising. I was rageful in parts. Worth reading.
