520 _aHill, with journalist McCubbin, has written a warm, revealing account of his years as a Secret Service agent assigned to protect Jacqueline Kennedy during her time in the White House and after. He relives this period of his long career from first meeting Kennedy on through the tragedy in Dallas and beyond. Kennedy picked Hill to remain in charge of her security after the assassination of her husband. Hill adeptly manages the difficult task of providing the reader intimate glimpses into the Kennedy family's life, as well as Kennedy's glamorous international travels, while evoking a sense of the tremendous personal sacrifices made by Secret Service agents on the job. He recalls the horror at Dealey Plaza in stark, terrifying detail, recounting the frantic seconds that claimed President Kennedy's life and left Hill wracked with pain and guilt that has never fully subsided.
