This Week's selection: It's Classified by Nicolle Wallace

Due out: September 27, 2011

Former White House Communications Director and current political media strategist Nicolle Wallace offers more of the insider intrigue and D.C. drama readers couldn’t get enough of in her acclaimed debut, Eighteen Acres.
For her first novel, Nicolle Wallace drew on years of experience as a capital insider to write a fast-paced, impossible-to-put-down page-turner. Now she’s back with a sequel that offers more of the juicy political gossip and scandalous affairs of Washington’s power-hungry elite.
President Charlotte Kramer, the nation’s first female president, returns for her second term after re-election and Tara Meyers is now Vice President of the United States. For Tara, making the transition from the New York Attorney General’s office to working on the national level by President Kramer’s side creates issues that blur the line between personal and professional. After botching a live television interview that gets everyone in D.C. clamoring for her resignation, she attempts to redeem herself by wading headlong into a sensational terror investigation. Unfortunately, Tara’s leading role in the case puts her in the crosshairs of an edgy public with questions about the White House’s role in the plot—and what the administration did or didn’t do to keep the country clear from danger.
Just like Eighteen Acres, It’s Classified has all the drama, heart, and page-turning delight of such runaway bestsellers as The Senator’s Wife and The American Wife .
