About this product

Product Information

There was always something clandestine and dark about our meetings. Never was bread broken as friends. Not even a pot of tea or the offer of a glass of water. Instead, with shades drawn in a tiny living room, hushed tones were used to speak of when America was in a cold war and a space race, and how this slim blond woman and come to know almost every major figure in America's quest for domination…. I was trying to figure out if the woman I knew as Jerrie Cobb either was the CIA agent June Cobb or was tangled up in her spy operations…. Was she part of some kind of a double-identity illusion? And what relationship might she have had to John F. Kennedy's murder?

Reviews
"Fascinating . . . [Haverstick] distills a prodigious amount of research into a fast-moving story. . . . As a fresh history of U.S. espionage, A Woman I Know is an absorbing read." -- The New York Times "An anxious, furious, forensic contribution to the study of the assassination of US president John F Kennedy . . . Haverstick is in earnest here, and has a memory like a filing system and a filing system like a vice. The least this book could possibly be is a compelling real-life thriller, full of passion, free of writerly fuss, woven from the most intractable archival cat's cradle imaginable. That's what you've got, even before you think to take it seriously--and I'll bet the farm that you will." -- The Telegraph "Intriguing and endlessly enigmatic . . . A cat-and-mouse search for a woman's identity opens onto a shadowy corner of the assassination of John F. Kennedy. . . . Jerrie Cobb's fascinating life reveals her to be 'a spy, an explorer, a gambler, an astronaut, an illusionist, a narcissist, and a con'--and, to say the least, a puzzle." -- Kirkus Reviews, "Fascinating . . .
