From New York Times bestselling author J. Randy Taraborrelli comes The Kennedy Heirs, his most revealing Kennedy book yet.

A unique burden was inherited by the children of the original Kennedy icons, JFK and his celebrated siblings. Raised in a world of enormous privilege, against the backdrop of American history, their own lives often veered between towering accomplishment and moments of personal heartbreak. These are the Kennedy stories you’ve never heard before:

The real story of JFK, Jr.’s tumultuous marriage to Carolyn Bessette and the details of their tragic deaths

Caroline Kennedy’s surprising marriage to Ed Schlossberg and her rivalry with her brother, John

The unexpected way pop star Taylor Swift helped Conor Kennedy cope with his mother’s suicide

Congressman Joseph Kennedy III’s rise to power and his compelling Democratic response to President Donald Trump’s State of the Union address

Based on exclusive first-hand interviews and in-depth research, The Kennedy Heirs is an epic drama of ambition, scandal, pride and power.
