Four new thrillers to dig into during the change in seasons

My bar for celebrity mysteries is extremely low. Give me a passable plot and dress it with some snippets of good gossip and I’ll read past the cliched characters and trite dialog. I should mention here that former U.S. president Bill Clinton and James Patterson did not make that bar and so I approached Hillary Clinton’s opus with some trepidation. I should have known better.

The plum quickly turns to poison as Adams faces crisis after crisis. It’s here that Clinton’s extensive experience comes into play. We are in the room where decisions get made and power is confronted. This isn’t a hot action thriller because the plot moves on strategic travel, smart talk and deciphering movements and tiny clues. There is, of necessity, a lot of talk but it all works because we get insight into how world leaders work with and against each other.

The end, when it comes, is a neck snapper. We have a countdown, a crash, a confrontation and three different agents of evil all colliding in the White House. Do not, above all, read the end of this one first and do save it for a weekend when you don’t have to stop reading.I read this novel in one 12-hour gulp. I literally couldn’t put it down and it’s convinced me that Colson Whitehead can do anything.

Whitehead has put so much into the slim plot line that it’s impossible to recap. Just know that everything leads up to the Harlem riots that opened many people’s eyes to the results of a hundred years of slavery followed by a hundred years of racial discrimination. It also led desperate Black people to torch and vandalize Black businesses like, Ray’s, along with the white businesses that exploited them.
