Review:
Wow. This is a historical novel that tracks the events of the actual Booth family. It is fiction because the author jumps inside some of the characters' heads and also provides dialog that was never written down. It is extremely well written and carries the events that lead from John Wilkes Booth's birth to his death (and Lincoln's in between). Of course, there is a lot that is made up or assumed from circumstance, but that does not take away from this work as a history.
