The storyline describes disastrous consequences for the botched assassination attempt in Dealey Plaza, sparking a half-century war with Russia. A present-day team of outlaws must time-travel fifty years into history to prevent the bloody conflict from igniting, and right the wrongs of the past in order to save the future.

Regarding the Kindle ranking, Fitzgerald notes, “I am absolutely thrilled to learn of this achievement. As the fiftieth anniversary of the JFK assassination approaches next year, I am not surprised to see increased media attention on the thirty-fifth president. After all, the JFK Library recently released audiotapes of the aftermath of the assassination, and an alleged Kennedy mistress has published a memoir. However, I am deeply gratified that readers are interested in a fictional account as well.”

The novel’s fast-paced twists and turns culminate in a narrative of the events surrounding the assassination. Fitzgerald weaves testimony of real-life witnesses into the fictional universe, ultimately revealing a ruthless mastermind behind the diabolical plot. Fitzgerald adds, “In writing ‘Destination Dealey,’ I endeavored to make the Kennedy Assassination accessible to the layperson. You don’t have to be a conspiracy buff to relate to the characters’ heroic struggle for freedom.”

Readers seem to agree. The novel currently has an average Amazon Reader Review Rating of five stars, and is selling internationally.
