"Our American Friend" by Anna Pitoniak. Presented by Manville branch library assistant Eric Alicea.

"Our American Friend is a propulsive Cold War era spy thriller crossed with a fictional biography of a First Lady. Spanning from the 1970s to the present day, traveling from Moscow and Paris to Washington and New York, Anna Pitoniak's novel is a gripping page-turner about power and complicity and how sometimes, the fate of the world is in the hands of the people you'd never expect"-- Provided by publisher
