Synopsis
A book which seeks to strip away the carefully-constructed tissue of half-truths and outright lies that seem to cover the incidents surrounding what has become known simply as "Chappaquiddick." The events of that night effectively ended Senator Edward M. Kennedy's chances of every serving as President but, more importantly, ended the life of bright young woman.

Reviews
Relying heavily on previous investigative journalism analyzing the tragedy--Jack Olsen's Bridge at Chappaquiddick ( LJ 3/15/70), Thomas and Richard Tedrow's Death at Chappaquiddick (Pelican, 1980. rev. ed.), and Leo Damore's Senatorial Privilege (Regnery Gateway, 1988)--journalist Kappel hones in on three pieces of ignored or underrated evidence. He proposes that Mary Jo Kopechne was knocked unconscious when a drunk and speeding Kennedy lost control of the car, and that, thinking she was dead, he and his cohorts devised the bridge accident as a cover-up--a theory which, if correct, would make Kennedy guilty of manslaughter. Kappel's meticulous and methodical probing is somewhat offset by an undercurrent of sarcastic asides, but his closely reasoned reporting certainly adds to the literature that casts doubt on Kennedy's version of Chappaquiddick.
