In THE WINGS OF THE DOVE, Kate Croy, a penniless young Englishwoman, tries to arrange a marriage between her fianci Merton Densher and the American heiress she has befriended, knowing that Millie, the heiress, has a fatal illness and not long to live. Informed about the situation, Millie generously leaves her money to Densher anyway, as proof of her love for him. But Densher, conscience-stricken and devastated by this proof of purity and virtue, is unable to accept the money or to marry Kate, whom he now sees for the scheming opportunist she is.

His last novel,The Small Boat of Great Sorrows, was hailed as“a relentlessly crackling mystery and adventure tale” (The Baltimore Sun) and“a new standard for war-based thrillers” (Los Angeles Times). In this electrifying new thriller, Dan Fesperman takes us to present-day Afghanistan–the global capital of death long before it became a battleground for America–where the fates of an American journalist and a Pakistani translator become dangerously intertwined with the fortunes of warlords, spies, and dubious corporate interests.A burned-out war correspondent hoping for a last hurrah in Afghanistan, Skelly arrives on the Afghan border just as American bombs begin falling on the ruling Taliban. Seeking the scoop of a lifetime as witness to the capture of“the biggest fish of them all,” he links up with an exiled warlord’s quixotic expedition. Guiding Skelly’s way is Najeeb, a tribal Pakistani with his own objective–U.S. visas for his girlfriend and himself, promised by Pakistani intelligence if he acts as an informant.A harrowing crossing into Afghanistan is only the beginning of trouble for the two men. Their journey quickly escalates into a race for their lives as they are pulled into a vortex of intrigue, betrayal, and violence. Finally, only their loyalty to each other holds out the possibility of survival for either of them.Fast-paced, timely, and galvanizing from first to last.

Worse Than Watergate will be published in the heat of primary season, when all eyes begin to focus on the November presidential election. John W. Dean's profile remains incredibly high, with regular appearances on national TV and radio shows, and his widely read online column. No author or commentator possesses such unique knowledge of Bush's presidential ploys and their striking comparisons to Nixon's, an irresistible hook for the media in an election year that coincides with the 30th anniversary of Nixon's resignation. He is the author of five books, including the New York Times bestseller Blind Ambition.
