Award-winning novelist Austin Grossman reimagines the Freezing Battle as an epic fight resistant to the occult waged by the ultimate American antihero - Richard Nixon. Richard Milhous Nixon resided one of the most improbable lives of the 20th century. Our 37th president's political job spanned the button-down '50s, the Mad Men '60s, and the turbulent '70s. He experienced down the Russians, the Chinese language, and, inevitably, his own government. The man went from political mastermind to a national joke, sobbing in the Oval Office, leaving us with one burning up question: How could he have lost it all? Here, for the first time, is the story advised in his own words: the terrifying supernatural solution he stumbled after as a young man, the truth behind the Freezing War, and the truth behind the Watergate cover-up. Imagine if our nation's most detrimental leader was actually a pivotal shape captured in a anxious struggle between ordinary life and horrors from another fact? What if the man we call our most detrimental president was, in truth, our ideal? In Crooked, Nixon finally reveals the secret background of modern American politics as only Austin Grossman could reimagine it. Merging Lovecraftian suspense, international intrigue, Russian honey traps, and a presidential marriage whose secrets and battles of attrition were their own heroic saga, Grossman's novel is a masterwork of different history, equal parts mesmerizing character study and nail-biting Faustian thriller.
