New York Times bestselling author Linda Fairstein will be joining Books & Books to introduce her latest thriller, Night Watch. As former head of the sex crimes unit of the Manhattan District Attorney's Office, Fairstein is adored by her fans for her ability to expertly combine ripped-from-the-headlines plots with an honest, gritty depiction of New York City. Night Watch is no different – but never has Fairstein written so directly about an alleged crime that was just recently in the headlines. In her 14th Alexandra Cooper novel, a maid at the Eurotel hotel in Soho claims the distinguished French West African leader of the World Economic Bureau assaulted her. Fairstein takes us into the dark underbelly of New York City's hidden secrets and politics, and keeps us on the edge of our seats until the very end!
