Next Friday is THE BIG DAY: the release of the 26th novel in the Housewife Assassin series!
In Doomsday Diary, Donna and Jack Craig take on roles of a lifetimeāthat of the world's wealthiest coupleāto seduce a cabal of political conspirators whose sole purpose is to topple democracy in America. Its weapon of choice: a doomsday device that will annihilate all humankind.
The video above is filled with all kinds of clues of what the Craigs will encounter in their latest action-packed mission. One by one, I'll give your some hints:
- Oh, the places they'll go! Oh, the bad guys they'll meet! The action has the whole Acme crew jet-setting from one side of the country to the other. But their new posh settings hold deep, dark secrets. One by one, Acme operatives ānot to mention those they are tasked with protectingāare sidelined. I won't say by whom and how. You'll have to read it to see.
- Mad Hacker joins in on the fun and games. A former adversary (Book 8: Killer App) who proved to be a White Hat after all, Mad Hacker is the ideal pinch hitter for this cat and mouse game with an enemy that outplays Acme at every turn.
- Femme Fatales go on a Jack attack! With money comes power. Does it make you sexy? As Donna and Jack both learn, it certainly makes you desirable. And because failure is not an option, inevitably that other F-word comes into play all too often. Although they disdain honey trapping, they find it easier when they have no doubts that their their hearts belong to each other. For our favorite deadly duo, solace is the new sexy.
- Death Becomes Donna. Yes, our sexy assassin gets killed off. Needless to say, resurrection is a bitch.
- And finally: nothing is as it seems. I write this last, but it is far from the book's least revelation. Dear reader, let's face it: we are in a day and age where things are moving more quickly than humankind realizes. In two years, our world will look differently than it does today. As for the next decade: we won't even recognize it.
"That's okay," you say. āAs history shows, things only get better.ā Ha! Don't make me laugh. Instead, leave me the task of entertaining you with Donna's sardonic spin on the newest and baddest villain.
Otherwise, we may both cry at what we see headed our way. This book isn't called Doomsday Diary for nothing.
