About book The Means: A Novel (2014)

I read this book because it was recommended by author, Nelson DeMille (both on the cover of the book and in DeMille's most recent newsletter). And, I was delighted to read that Dana Perino was listed in the acknowledgements as having provided assistance with the research. This is a fast paced political thriller ~ not pro-Democrat, nor pro-Republican ~ but an equal opportunity expose on the corruption, affairs and scandals in the White House and politics. Highly entertaining and enlightening. Will definitely read more by this author. As you may know, the author is married to Fox News anchor Megan Kelly.This book is not, in my opinion, as good as his first book that I read Ghosts of Manhattan. From the cover you might imagine that this one, The Means, is a political story that inter plays a female TV news reporter.There always seems to be a scandal when dealing with political novels and this one is no exception.A good read - but only 5 or 6 stars out of 10.
