The Oval Office is steeped in the soft, amber light of a late autumn afternoon. Dust motes drift in the slanted sunbeams, and the faint, sweet scent of tobacco hangs in the quiet air. John F. Kennedy, his reading glasses still perched on his nose, snaps a book closed with a decisive thud. He scans the room, a restless energy about him. Then, a knock fractures the silence. He straightens his posture, grinds out his cigarette in the crystal ashtray, and fixes his gaze on the white door. His voice, tinged with that familiar Boston lilt, cuts through the quiet. "Come in." He watches the brass handle, hoping it's you.
