A new book names Donovan as involved in the conspiracy to kill Patton. Haven’t read the book, don’t know how credible it is, but the death is definitely suspicious.

Target Patton, copyright 2008

Just a few years ago Oliver North did a War Stories which disputed various conspiracy theories. So I don't know.

If I remember right, North concluded something along the lines of, the death Patton received was just the sort an old soldier like him would have wanted -- short of being killed in battle.

Btw, that name Donovan shows up in a number of interesting places, including as a close advisor to FDR in the months just before Pearl Harbor.
