Hardback. Zustand: Good. Two little girls, frozen in black and white. One picture worth killing for. The Civil Rights Movement is less than a distant memory to Lisa Waldren--it is someone else's memory altogether, passed on to her through the pages of history. Her life as a federal prosecutor in Boston feels utterly remote from the marches in the South that changed her father's generation--and the entire nation--forever. But the truth is, she was there. When a photograph surfaces showing a blond, four-year-old Lisa playing with an African-American girl at a civil rights march in Fort Worth, Lisa is faced with a jarring revelation: the girls may have been the only witnesses who observed the real killer of civil rights leader Benjamin Gray.and therefore the only ones who can exonerate the death row inmate falsely accused of the murder. Soon, Lisa finds herself in the dangerous world her father had shielded her from as a child. After some searching, the Waldrens find the other little girl from the photo and, in the process, uncover a conspiracy mere steps away from the likes of Bobby Kennedy, Lyndon Johnson, and J. Edgar Hoover. Based on real events and a photograph snapped by author Lis Wiehl's own G-man father, Snapshot is a remarkably original marriage of mystery and history. Lis Wiehl deftly interweaves threads of race, gender, memory, and the father-daughter relationship in what many will inevitably say is her most mature, poignant novel yet.…

Hardback. Zustand: Good. New York Times Bestseller An irreverent look behind the scenes of American politics from one of the most sought-after operatives in the Democratic Party Lis Smith isn't your average political strategist and Any Given Tuesday isn't your typical political memoir. At once a revealing look at human nature at the highest levels of power and an intimate portrayal of a sometimes rocky personal journey, it breaks all the rules. Smith doesn't pretend to be perfect--she owns the controversial choices that landed her in the tabloids, as well as the unorthodox ones that have paid off and defined her successful career.  Any Given Tuesday follows Smith from her earliest experiences as a college-aged intern to her days as a trusted adviser and confidante to some of the most high-profile politicians in the country--including her star turn as senior adviser on Pete Buttigieg's 2020 presidential campaign. Animated by Smith's love for the hand-to-hand combat of politics and sustained by her deeply-held belief that it's still possible to effect positive change, it's an odyssey full of highs and lows and larger-than-life characters. Throughout, Smith shows what it's really like behind the curtain: what happens when the lights go down and the cameras turn off, how it feels to be in the eye of the political media storm, and how the people responsible for heady, life and death decisions are as flawed as the rest of us. While the journey hasn't always been smooth, Lis Smith has seen and learned a lot--and she shares it all in this eye-opening, entertaining memoir. What does it take to survive--and win--at the highest levels of American politics? Campaign War Rooms: A front-row seat to the strategy, chaos, and crisis communications inside historic campaigns for Pete Buttigieg, Andrew Cuomo, and more. Women in Politics: An unflinching look at the unique challenges and double standards faced by women operatives in a field dominated by men. The Tabloid Trenches: Smith confronts the controversial choices and high-profile relationships that landed her on the front page, sharing hard-won lessons on surviving the media storm. Political Media Spin: Go behind the curtain and see how the sausage gets made, from shaping a narrative and killing a bad story to navigating the modern 24/7 news cycle.…
