This week’s Newsmax Rising Bestsellers will highlight an honest appraisal of someone who’s long been an icon of the Democratic Party and a clarion call for men to embrace their masculine selves. There is also a breakdown of what led to the Golden State’s decline, and the examination of one of the most brutal, abhorrent murder cases of the late 20th century, one that has recently re-entered the courtroom and the headlines. But first the novel of the week is the latest offering by New York Times bestselling author Gillian McAllister.
“Famous Last Words: A Suspenseful Domestic Thriller,” by Gillian McAllister (William Morrow)
In this latest tale by Gillian McAllister, a young mother’s life turns upside down on the morning she’s set to return to work after her maternity leave. Instead of awakening alongside her husband, her eyes open to a cryptic note he’d left for her. Then the police arrive to tell her that he’s involved in a hostage situation — not as a victim but as the hostage-taker. Only she knows what her husband’s note said, what his “famous last words” were in this thriller penned by a novelist with a reputation as “the best at putting her characters in impossible situations…” “This is almost literally un-put-downable,” wrote Meg L. in her Amazon review. The characters are richly drawn. The plot and writing suck you in, and the ending is both satisfying and a surprise. Don’t miss this one!” [Fiction]“Debunking FDR: The Man and the Myths,” by Mary Grabar (Regnery History)
