Just in time for the 50th anniversary of JFK’s death!
The Thunderbird Conspiracy is the remarkable tale of Robert Kaye, a Hungarian freedom fighter who claimed he knew and collaborated with JFK assassin Lee Harvey Oswald. R. K. Price’s second novel is also a tale of a Nebraska farm boy who was a great admirer of President Kennedy and a true patriot who desperately wanted to believe his government’s hurried conclusion that Oswald had no accomplice. Yet his own harrowing experience at the hands of his government created profound doubt in his mind, and it haunted him to his death.
These two men, one willfully acting, the other a true victim, became entangled in the most notorious crime of the 20th century. This saga of intrigue and murder was revealed to the author on a wintry Colorado day about three weeks before the farm boy’s ravaged heart gave out.
That man was R. K. Price’s uncle. His name was Bud Carlson. Price stashed away Bud’s account of Robert Kaye, letting it lay dormant for nearly forty years until he could corroborate his uncle’s story with the release of previously secret FBI files from the National Archives.
Now nearing the 50th anniversary of Kennedy’s assassination Price has brought Robert Kaye and Bud Carlson back to life. Their incredible story will leave you questioning just how and why JFK was taken from America far too early.
My Thoughts:
The Thunderbird Conspiracy weaves fact and fiction about the JFK assassination.  Years ago Bud Carlson, R.K.’s uncle, told him about an an employee of his that may have been involved in a conspiracy to kill JFK.  R.K. sat on what Bud told him because there was no hard proof.  However, about 20 years ago, more information was becoming opened up to the public.  Since then, every so many years more information has been release.  Using what Bud told him, the release information, and his imagination, R.K. Price has pieced together a compelling story.
Did Lee Harvey Oswald act alone or was there a conspiracy?  We may never know for sure.  However, that fateful day has captured our imagination and theories still, 50 years later.  
Brimming with believable characters, exciting twists and turns, and a well developed plot, R.K. Price weaves together a possible theory.  I only have one slight complaint, that I think it could have been edited down just a little bit.  Some of the dream sequences seemed a bit repetitive. However, I highly recommend The Thunderbird Conspiracy!  It is a highly charged exciting read!
4.5/5
I received an ebook copy for my honest review.
