Resignation and reflection -- All my eggs -- The Queen city -- Gettysburg and protection -- Secret Service school and White House detail -- My debut -- Ravello, Italy -- Lace, the Cuban Missile Crisis, and the loss of Patrick -- Greece -- Texas -- Parkland -- Back in Washington, DC -- On the move, life after death, or buried but not forgotten.
"Special Agent Paul Landis is in the follow-up car directly behind JFK's and is at the president's limo as soon as it stops at Parkland Memorial Hospital. He is inside Trauma Room #1, where the president is pronounced dead. He is on Air Force One with the president's casket on the flight back to Washington, DC; an eyewitness to Lyndon Johnson taking the oath of office. What he saw is indelibly imprinted upon his psyche. He writes and files his report. And yet . . . Agent Landis is never called to testify to the Warren Commission. The one person who could have supplied key answers is never asked questions. By mid-1964, the nightmares from Dallas remain, and he resigns. It isn't until the fiftieth anniversary that he begins to talk about it, and he reads his first books on the assassination." -- Amazon.com.
