A view of one of the 20th century’s most prolific serial killers, from the memory of someone who knew him well — a cousin who grew up with him, highlights this week’s Newsmax Rising Bestsellers. There are also three other nonfiction offerings that remind the reader of the importance of this year’s election. One describes the costly and dangerous claims told to the world in the name of climate change. Another depicts the end of the world’s great civilizations as those alive at the time would have experienced them – and if can we discern any parallels to today. And finally, a popular political commentator and former liberal exposes the left’s destructive agenda. For fiction, a popular New York Times bestseller series gives us the latest episode of its famous homicide detective.
“Passions in Death: An Eve Dallas Novel,” by J. D. Robb (St. Martin’s Press)
This is the 59th book in novelist J.D. Robb’s series that are centered on Det. Eve Dallas. In this one Dallas investigates the brutal murder by garrote of a bride-to-be at her own pre-wedding party in Manhattan’s Down and Dirty club — the very place where Eve nearly lost her own life. Dallas concludes that the murder required a mixture of heated passion and ice-cold calculation. She won’t stop until she finds the person responsible for shattering a young couple’s dreams before they could be realized. “Overall, this novel was an emotional and twisty tale with great characterization that kept me engaged throughout the story,” said PamG in her GoodReads review. “If you enjoy intriguing near-future police procedurals with a strong female lead, then I recommend this series. I can’t wait to read the next book.” [Fiction]“Dark Tide: Growing Up With Ted Bundy,” by Edna Cowell Martin & Megan Atkinson (Permuted Press)
