Joe Kennedy wanted to ensure his son, Jack, would win the presidency, and he was not shy about asking his Mafia connections for help. Now his son was sitting in the White House, and how did the president-elect and his brother, the attorney general, repay the favors? They turned on the Mod with a vengeance. Carlos Marcello, the Mob boss in New Orleans, was under indictment, and Robert Kennedy's Organized Crime Task Force was bearing down on the Dallas crime family headed by Joe Civello. Something had to be done, and soon. That is why several high-ranking Mob figures had been summoned to New Orleans. It was at this meeting that the plan to assassinate President Kennedy was finalized.

This is the story that has been waiting to be told for 50 years – what happened on the fateful day in Dallas when Kennedy was shot and the chilling events leading up to the assassination. Lee Harvey Oswald is cast in the title role, but he sheds that role and becomes the leading man in this drama that shocked the nation and the world and gives him what he had been searching for his whole life.
