{"product_id":"the-librarian-9780786740291","title":"The Librarian","description":"How on earth did nebbish university librarian David Goldberg end up on Virginia's Ten Most Wanted Criminals list for bestiality? And how did he get ensnared in a vast right-wing conspiracy to steal the presidency? It all begins so innocently when Goldberg starts moonlighting for eccentric, conservative billionaire Alan Carston Stowe as an archivist. But Goldberg's appointment worries a cabal of ruthless right-wingers -- ostensibly allies of Stowe, whose money lubricates their zany scary conspiracies -- with very close ties to the White House. They fear that Goldberg will find something in Stowe's records that will compromise the dirty tricks involved in re-electing Augustus Winthrop Scott, the dim scion of a powerful Republican political family, for a second term. As the presidential election heads into its final stretch, the hunt is on to remove Goldberg from his position -- by any means necessary. The acclaimed, Edgar-winning mystery writer Larry Beinhart returns with this timely novel. In the tradition of Carl Hiassen, Elmore Leonard, and Joe Klein, \u003ci\u003eThe Librarian\u003c\/i\u003e is a frenetic, scary and hilarious thriller that goes deep into the dark heart of election year politics.","brand":"Bold Type Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67934043013298,"sku":"9780786740291","price":10.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0536\/7418\/0786\/files\/9780786740291.jpg?v=1794071065","url":"https:\/\/shop.hachettebookgroup.com\/products\/the-librarian-9780786740291","provider":"Hachette Book Group","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
