Reviews"Andersen has an ear for the telling anecdote and writes in a lively, gossipy style...Andersen cuts to the quick, vividly...the book really, truly, focuses on what the jacket calls "the unbreakable bond between a mother and her child" both of whom led lives "tested by history and tragedy."

SynopsisAndersen reveals new details about JFK Jr and his relationship with his mother, his many girlfriends, and thenight of his tragic death., The #1 New York Times bestselling author delivers another dramatic installment in the lives of the Kennedys--including new details about JFK Jr., his relationship with his mother, his many girlfriends, and the night of his tragic death. Critically acclaimed author Christopher Andersen is a master of celebrity biographies--boasting sixteen bestsellers, among them These Few Precious Days , Mick , and William and Kate. Now, in his latest thrilling book, new and untold details of the life and death of JFK Jr. come to light, released in time for the fifteenth year marker of the tragic plane crash on July 16, 1999. At the heart of The Good Son is the most important relationship in JFK Jr.'s life: that with his mother, the beautiful and mysterious Jackie Kennedy Onassis. Andersen explores his reactions to his mother's post-Dallas suicidal depression and growing dependence on prescription drugs (as well as men); how Jackie felt about the women in her son's life, from Madonna and Sarah Jessica Parker, to Daryl Hannah and Carolyn Bessette, to his turbulent marriage; the senseless plane crash the took his life; the aftermath of shock, loss, grief, and confusion; and much more. Offering new insights into the intense, tender, often stormy relationship between this iconic mother and son, The Good Son is a riveting, bittersweet biography for lovers of all things Kennedy.

  • The Good Son

    What a compelling story and the things we didn’t know then that we know now! I am amazed at how fast I went through this book, couldn’t put it down, and helped broaden my horizons on so many levels, not only about Jackie Kennedy, but about government, policies, the White House , the family dynamics, the Rat Pack, the father Joe Kennedy, and so much more! Highly recommend!!!
