Two famous political families come into focus in this week’s Newsmax Rising Bestsellers while another two offer ways for one to prepare for the future. The examination of the political families include a mid-20th century powerhouse with the second from early America that resulted in a father-son presidency. Additionally, there is a suggestion for what God has in store for us through and beyond this decade, while another will prepare the reader for that ultimate outcome: the death of a loved one. A fiction offering is the latest misadventures of an old literary friend.
“Dog Day Afternoon: An Andy Carpenter Mystery,” by David Rosenfelt (Minotaur Books)
Retired lawyer Andy Carpenter reluctantly gives in to the request of Marcus Clark, his longtime friend and colleague, to represent someone accused of mass murder. The accused is a former troubled youth named Nick that Marcus took in. Nick is accused of murdering six coworkers where he is employed. He was identified by a coworker through Nick’s sneakers and tattoo. The fact that the murder weapon was discovered near Nick’s home didn’t help. “Another great installment! I was really happy with where this story took us. I was getting tired of the mafia links in this series and this story went in a different direction,” wrote Kristie, reviewing for GoodReads. “I really did enjoy this one. As usual, this can be read as a standalone, but you will miss out on the background of all the characters. It has been fun to watch them over time.” [Fiction]“Ask Not: The Kennedys and the Women They Destroyed,” by Maureen Callahan (Little, Brown and Company)
