Stringer was just doing his job when he went to hear Teddy Roosevelt speak at a railway stop in Granger, Wyoming. But Stringer's job is to write about the speech—not get shot at. So suddenly a certain reporter has a powerful curiosity about who wants him six feet under. There's just one hitch. Stringer can't be sure if the bullet was meant for him or old Teddy. Now all MacKail has to do is dodge a pack of hired killers, swap lead with a few train robbers, match wits with a renegade Shoshoni, and bed a few lusty ladies on a trail that could end up on the front page—or in the obituaries.

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 When I heard the news of President Kennedy’s assassination, I was shocked and disbelief quickly turned to anger. I felt a sense of unreality as the unending reportage flooded in from Dallas. #2 The New Orleans connection meant that my office had to investigate Oswald’s possible associations in our jurisdiction. We discovered that the alleged assassin had been seen with a man named David Ferrie during the summer. I got my people on the telephone to investigate a possible Oswald–Ferrie relationship. #3 I had met David Ferrie once, in 1962, when I was walking across Carondelet Street near Canal Street. He had been shouting congratulations on my election as district attorney. I had remembered him as an adventurer and pilot, and his reputation as an anti-Castro activist. #4 I had a high regard for the American legal system, and was confident that an F. B. I. investigation into David Ferrie and any other matters related to the President’s assassination would be thorough.

Many men killed Julius Caesar. Only one man was determined to kill the killers. From the spring of 44 BC through one of the most dramatic and influential periods in history, Caesar's adopted son, Octavian, the future Emperor Augustus, exacted vengeance on the assassins of the Ides of March, not only on Brutus and Cassius, immortalized by Shakespeare, but all the others too, each with his own individual story. The last assassin left alive was one of the lesser-known: Cassius Parmensis was a poet and sailor who chose every side in the dying Republic's civil wars except the winning one, a playwright whose work was said to have been stolen and published by the man sent to kill him. Parmensis was in the back row of the plotters, many of them Caesar's friends, who killed for reasons of the highest political principles and lowest personal piques. For fourteen years he was the most successful at evading his hunters but has been barely a historical foot note--until now. The Last Assassin dazzlingly charts an epic turn of history through the eyes of an unheralded man. It is a history of a hunt that an emperor wanted to hide, of torture and terror, politics and poetry, of ideas and their consequences, a gripping story of fear, revenge, and survival.
