Maureen Callahan: author exposes the Kennedys in new book Ask Not: The Kennedys and the Women They Destroyed

from The Sunday Session with Francesca Rudkin · host Newstalk ZB

For decades, the Kennedys were held in high regard, with the family name being synonymous with wealth, power and integrity. However, author Maureen Callahan has exposed the hidden dark side between one of America's most powerful families in her new book Ask Not: The Kennedys and the Women They Destroyed. The book unveiled stories of sexual assault, abuse, exploitation and scandal - all carried out by an iconic American family. Callahan says the women who married into the family were subjected to a 'brutal' experience.  "I wrote Ask Not like a novel because I wanted the readers to be in their head and their hearts as they go through these relationships and experiences."
