Review: A great piece of historical fiction

Keith Raffel did a tremendous job a capturing the very horror that could have easily unfolded during the days of the Cuban missile crisis.  The historical figures -- Jack, Jackie and Bobby Kennedy, McNamara, LeMay, etc. come across as real people, not as paper cut outs as is with much of the genre.  The story line is a page turner, especially in part 3.  For someone like me who was growing up during time and saw the events unfold on TV this was a great read and brought back a lot of memories.
