'A daring and compulsively page-turning historical what-if fiction. . . A remarkably realistic alternative world story. . . Unapologetically opinionated, challenging, and thought provoking.'-Publishers Weekly'I am simply blown away by the imagination and scholarship that has gone into Mitchell Freedman’s fabulous novel, A Disturbance of Fate. Incredibly, Freedman pulls off this historical fantasy and tells a truly fascinating, though very controversial, tale.'-Dan E. Moldea, author of The Killing of Robert F. Kennedy'A Disturbance of Fate is fun and imaginative. It presents a fascinating extrapolation from what we know about our history and reaffirms the importance of Robert F. Kennedy’s legacy and vision.'-Peter Edelman, author of Searching for America’s Heart: RFK and the Renewal of Hope, and legislative assistant to Senator Robert F. Kennedy'A Disturbance of Fate is a powerful and creative work of social realism.'-Dr. Kevin Starr, State Librarian of California and award-winning author of the series, Americans and The California Dream'Whether you agree with Mitch Freedman’s political views or not, his book is an exciting and imaginative exercise in what could have been.'-The late Alan W.

Kennedy was never killed, and where he went on to win the Presidency of the United States of America.
