The fall : the end of Fox News and the Murdoch Dynasty / by Wolff, Michael,1953-author.;
In The Fall, Wolff returns to one of the foundational subjects of his journalistic career, Rupert Murdoch, to tell the story of the collapse of a media dynasty. He writes of the effects of Foxs all-powerful controlling shareholders age (92), the desperate rivalries and contradictory desires of his children regarding the future of the network (the flesh and blood version of HBOs Succession ), the irresolvable contradiction of Rupert Murdochs antipathy to Trump, and to Foxs own stars, the full backstory of Tucker Carlsons ouster and of Foxs Chief Legal Officer, Viet Dinhs recent ouster, and reveals hidden details of the Dominion Settlement. Foxs power and its business are unsustainable, says Wolff, and the end of the network is not only imminent, but inevitable as we accelerate into the 2024 presidential election and a looming future without the patriarch.

But it's hard to know what's going on inside the twisted mind of Magnus Lamb, the charismatic leader of an isolated logging town known for its healing hot springs. Some might say he's created a peaceful utopia here on Gunmetal Mountain. But for Cleveland Trewe and his lovely traveling companion Berry, this little piece of heaven is more like Hell on Earth ... At first, Cleve and Berry are charmed by the town's natural beauty and simple way of life. But soon they see the community for what it really is: a brainwashed cult with some oddball beliefs, a rigid caste system, and a leader who thinks he's the new Messiah. This not-so-innocent Lamb has heard about Cleve's legendary gunfighting skills and wants him to lead an army to expand his power across the West. It's bound to be a bloodsoaked mission, and Cleve wants no part of it. But if he refuses, there'll be hell to pay ...

Black Wolf : a novel / by Kent, Kathleen,1953-author.;
"It is 1990 when Melvina Donleavy arrives in Soviet Belarus on her first undercover mission with the CIA, alongside three fellow agents--none of whom know she is playing two roles. To the prying eyes of the KGB, she is merely a secretary; to her CIA minders, she is the only one who can stop the flow of nuclear weapons from the crumbling Soviet Union into the Middle East. For Mel has a secret; she is a 'super recognizer,' someone who never forgets a face. But no training could prepare her for the reality of life undercover, and for the streets of Minsk, where women have been disappearing. Soviet law enforcement is firm: murder is a capitalist disease. But could a serial killer be at work? Especially if he knew no one was watching? As Mel searches for answers, she catches the eye of an entirely different kind of threat: the elusive and petrifying 'Black Wolf,' head of the KGB"--
