The Hidden History of the JFK Assassination: The Definitive Account of the Most Controversial Crime of the Twentieth Century by Lamar WaldronMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Powerful, wealthy crime lord Carlos Marcello planned to kill JKF to get back and him and (mostly) RFK for their persecution of Marcello, particularly the kidnapping-like deportation to Central America. This was done with cooperation of CIA associates, who had already collaborated with the mob on assassination plots.
Red herring clues on the "patsy" Oswald:
As for the shooting at General Walker’s home, Banister belonged to the same white supremacist circles as General Walker, and associates of the two had been at a white supremacist conference in New Orleans just four days before someone shot into Walker’s home. Any role Oswald had in that incident was probably at Banister’s behest, an effort to plant evidence that would make Oswald look murderously violent after he was arrested for JFK’s assassination.
...historians and researchers have shown that all the “Castro killed JFK” CIA reports were either debunked and/or can be traced back to the mob bosses and their CIA associates who later confessed their roles in JFK’s murder
Marcello's confession was obtained as part of a previously-unknown FBI sting operation targeting Marcello, code-named CAMTEX

I have been written about. I have been questioned. My book, "Trained to Kill," is the first time I tell the story for myself. The whole story.
Why now? In the past, I knew that Castro, and others, wouldn’t hesitate to do away with their enemies by putting a bomb under their car. I was well aware of what could happen as I traveled with my wife and children. Now I’m old. My wife is gone. My children are grown. I have survived cancer and a heart attack. Now I can reveal the truth about my double life.
My name is Antonio Veciana. I am an accountant by training, a banker and a businessman by trade. Some call me a patriot. Some call me a terrorist. Only one knew I was a spy, with a single mission—destroy Castro. My CIA handler, the man I knew as Maurice Bishop. The man whom congressional investigators later identified as master spy David Atlee Phillips. The man whom I saw meeting with Lee Harvey Oswald in Dallas.
