Week of January 20, 2020

Paperback releases for the week of January 20th include ONE GOOD DEED, a fast-paced historical thriller from David Baldacci, who introduces readers to Aloysius Archer, a WWII veteran forced to investigate a small-town murder --- or risk returning to prison; MAID, Stephanie Land's memoir about working as a maid, a beautiful and gritty exploration of poverty in America; OUTSIDE LOOKING IN, a provocative novel from T.C. Boyle that explores the first scientific and recreational forays into LSD and its mind-altering possibilities; CAMELOT'S END by Jon Ward, the captivating story of Ted Kennedy's 1980 campaign for president against the incumbent Jimmy Carter, told in full for the first time; and Joe Ide's WRECKED, in which the case of a young artist's missing mother sets Isaiah Quintabe (IQ for short) on a collision course with his own Moriarty.
