This was somewhat of a slow read. Although pretty interesting, it failed to convince me of a conspiracy against John Lennon by the CIA. I admit that I did (and still do) believe that there is more to the story, however this book lacked any compelling evidence to support the author's theory of CIA
The most interesting parts of the book pertained to John himself and the atmosphere surrounding the period after his death. I hadn't been born yet when John died, but I was raised on the Beatles and John's solo work, so I have always felt affinity for the man and his work. It's still hard for me to believe that he's gone even though I wasn't alive during his time. He was always a part of my life.
I would not strongly suggest this book to anyone, but there is a little to be gained for fans of John, even if it is just to (re)read his words and hear from those who knew him describe the years before his death.
