Chasey, William C. Pan Am 103: The Lockerbie Cover-up. Bridger House Publishers (P.O. Box 2208, Carson City NV 89702, Tel: 800-729-4131), 1995. 383 pages.

Imagine a slick Washington lobbyist who's on a first-name basis with the most important members of Congress. He's an ex-Marine, a former professor, he and his wife entertain at their home in Rancho Santa Fe, California, and they ski every Christmas at Vail with the rest of the beautiful people. Meanwhile, George Bush has exonerated Syria for the Lockerbie bombing in exchange for Assad's support against Iraq. The runner-up bad guy is Libya, but Qaddafi won't give up the accused unless they are tried in a neutral country. This proves convenient for the U.S., since the evidence to convict these two Libyans is sorely lacking.

Now imagine that this slick lobbyist is hired to work for Libya on this issue, and he ends up taking Congressman Carroll Hubbard and the wives to Libya for personal visits with the accused and Qaddafi himself. But any dealings with Libya are marginally illegal. You get the picture -- the feds go ballistic. Wiretaps, FBI sting operations, and frozen bank accounts. For the first half of the book, Chasey's name-dropping narrative doesn't inspire much sympathy. By the end of the book one has to admit that beneath that too-smooth exterior, Chasey has real character after all. It took courage to let it all hang out in these pages; it's a career-crusher for sure.
