Mary Mary

Somebody is murdering Hollywood’s A list.

FBI agent Alex Cross is on vacation when he gets a call from the Director. An actress has been shot outside her home in Beverly Hills. Afterward, an editor for the Los Angeles Times receives an e-mail recounting the murder in shocking detail, signed Mary Smith. Her calling card:

"You’ve got mail."

The authorities fear this is only the beginning. Mary Smith is targeting Hollywood stars and power brokers, and she is getting better every time.

This case is like nothing Alex has ever confronted before. Could this be the plan of an obsessed fan or a spurned actor, or is it part of something much more terrifying? And how could a woman be capable of these vicious crimes?

To track a merciless killer, Alex navigates a world where the stars sip San Pellegrino at the Ivy as hopefuls hover around studio gates armed with 8 X 10 glossies. Members of the A-list fear they’re next on Mary’s list, and Cross and the LAPD scramble to find a pattern before Mary can send one more chilling update.

Filled with the ruthless twists that make his fans hunger for more, Mary, Mary is James Patterson’s most sophisticated thriller yet.

Unlimited Access: An FBI Agent Inside the Clinton White House

As one of two FBI agents posted at the White House to perform background checks on appointees, FBI Special Agent Gary Aldrich intended to close his eventful career in peace and dignity.

But what he witnessed during the Clinton administration left him deeply troubled, then alarmed and
finally, so outraged,  that he felt compelled to leave.

Unlimited Access is Aldrich’s electrifying expose of a presidential administration with a great deal
to hide and willing to put America at risk to keep it hidden.

Aldrich describes how a comprehensive security system that had been perfected through six presidencies was systematically dismantled by the Clintons so they could bring friends into the White House who otherwise would have been barred by legal
problems, some prosecutable.

A #1 New York Times bestseller.

Blackout

Saturday, May 31st, 2008 by Book Guy | No Comments »

Blackout

Minutes after a Boeing 747 rises majestically into a Hong Kong sunset, a flash splits the darkening sky. The pilot - suddenly blinded and doubled over in pain - fumbles in the dark in a frantic effort to gain control as the huge jet shudders through its descent.

Kat Bronsky, FBI agent and terrorism specialist, is assigned the hunt for a Challenger-class business jet seen nearby just before the incident. The case poses countless questions: Was the flash a pilot error, a missile attack, or a malfunction? Or was it some new kind of weapon? And why are several government agencies interested in what Kat uncovers?
