Vigilante by Claude Bouchard

The assassin calmly crouched down over the body and carefully wiped the blade on the dead man’s jacket. He then pressed a button on the knife’s handle, causing the blade to disappear and slipped the weapon into a pocket. Returning to a standing position, the vigilante turned his attention to Eileen.

“Miss, I believe that you should be on your way. I am truly sorry for any inconvenience these gentlemen may have caused you and I promise they won’t ever do it again.”

Vigilante by Claude Bouchard

Shiva’s Messenger starts in 1963 Dallas but the view of the Kennedy Assassination is not the same as history shows.  The novel shows another assassin as the second shooter on the grassy knoll.  The novel plot then jumps to today where the Kennedy assassin has raised and trained a son.  Great novel plot and a fantastic twist on the Kennedy assassination.  Here is a segment from Shiva’s Messenger by Russell Twyce:

Quickly and smoothly, movements drilled to muscle memory, Jeff pulled his Mannlicher-Carcano assassination firearm from its cradle under his jacket.  The assassin knew the reasons or at least he believed he did.  ‘I couldn’t be better prepared for this action.’  Pulling the rifle butt into his shoulder, the assassin canted his head over the weapon to bring his eye directly behind the gun sight.  His index knuckle tensed on the trigger.  He was aware even of the knurl ridges, like a course fingerprint in the metal.  With a steady eye and finely tuned hand coordination, Jeff the assassin tracked a bead on President Kennedy’s forehead.

But Kennedy isn’t the only president in this assassination novel’s plot line crosshairs. A current president is the assassination target for a next-generation assassin.

Shiva’s Messenger

Author Russell Twyce takes our imaginations for an interesting journey into the spirituality of an assassin and an assassin’s mind. The novel begins at the Dallas assassination where we’re introduced to an assassin who isn’t listed in the history books. He is the second shooter on the grassy knoll. (THIS IS FICTION ONLY.) We follow this assassin’s actions on that day in Dallas and we feel the betrayal that he’s been subjected to. But that’s just the beginning–the scene jumps to today.

The Dallas assassin has been in hiding since Kennedy’s assassination. He has raised and meticulously trained his son to follow in his assassin’s shoes. The new assassin sets out on a quest to assassination that his father has assigned but though he’s been trained by a master assassin, the youth comes into his own spirituality.

Shiva’s Messenger tells an interesting story but the insight into an assassin’s mind and his spirituality is the ‘gravy on the meat’. By the end of the novel, I understood the young assassin’s mind very well and I found myself actually agreeing with him somewhat.

Shiva’s Messenger is an excellent read and sadly suffers from the self-published dilemma of not having the readership that it deserves.

Click my lit specializes in presenting literature that is NOT on the best seller (read biggest billboard) charts. Here is an assassination book that unravels the conspiracy behind the Lincoln Assassination Conspiracy.  Chasing Lincoln’s Killer

Did you live a past life during the Civil War?

James L. Swanson presents an account of the conspiratorial events leading up to the 1865 assassination of American President Abraham Lincoln. The tale is told through the eyes of the principle conspiracy member and assassin John Wilkes Booth. An assassination of Lincoln and other members of the Federal government would’ve aided the Confederate cause. At least that’s what the assassin and his fellow conspirators believed. One assassin pulled the trigger but other conspirators faced trial for their part in the Lincoln assassination conspiracy.

Chasing Lincoln’s Killer by James L. Swanson

In related conspiracy literature, it’s interesting to suppose what our world would be like today if the assassination of Lincoln had affected the confederate cause, as the assassination conspirators believed. In his online short story, Meet Your Messenger, Author Russell Twyce explores a fiction world where the Rebel South won the American Civil war.  Russell’s novel Shiva’s Messenger also features a presidential assassination conspiracy in supposing that the grassy knoll assassin has raised an assassin son.
