The number-one New York Times best-selling author of The Day John Died delivers another dramatic installment in the lives of the Kennedys - including new details about JFK, Jr., his relationship with his mother, his many girlfriends, and the night of his tragic death.
Critically acclaimed author Christopher Andersen is a master of celebrity biographies - boasting 16 best sellers, among them These Few Precious Days, Mick, and William and Kate. Now in his latest thrilling book, untold details of the life and death of JFK, Jr., come to light, released in time for the 15-year marker of the tragic plane crash on July 16, 1999.
At the heart of The Good Son is the most important relationship in JFK, Jr.'s life: that with his mother, the beautiful and mysterious Jackie Kennedy Onassis. Andersen explores his reactions to his mother's post-Dallas suicidal depression and growing dependence on prescription drugs (as well as men); how Jackie felt about the women in her son's life, from Madonna and Sarah Jessica Parker, to Daryl Hannah and Carolyn Bessette, to his turbulent marriage; the senseless plane crash that took his life; the aftermath of shock, loss, grief, and confusion; and much more. Offering new insights into the intense, tender, and often stormy relationship between this iconic mother and son, The Good Son is a riveting, bittersweet biography for lovers of all things Kennedy.

Camelot is a myth, but carefully preserved in Americas imagination since that awful day in November 1963.
This book is an account of what JBKO and her children’s lives were like before and after that time.
There’s a lot of detailed information about the family dynamics between the Kennedys and their in laws, the betrayals and distrust and rampant, unchecked bad behavior.
The passages about Jackie and how she navigated her place in the world after the assassination are heartbreaking to hear. She stopped at nothing to raise her children as normally as possible, given the tragic circumstances of their fathers death and also shaped by her home life when she herself was a child. The bonds between mother and child really shine through towards the latter parts of the book.
I will definitely listen to this again.
Fascinating!
