Today is the official publication date of my historical thriller The First Assassin–i.e., the AmazonEncore edition. It’s the same book as the one that came out last year, but it has a new cover, includes a map, and corrects several typos. The type is a little bigger so there are additional pages, even though it’s also a few dollars cheaper. More for your money! Vince Flynn calls it “an excellent book–it’s like The Day of the Jackal set in 1861 Washington.” Booklist recently gave it a starred review. If you enjoy thrillers and/or Civil War history, give it a try.
