The Ridgewood News

New York Times bestselling author and Ridgewood resident Harlan Coben is certainly no “stranger” to the Ridgewood community.

Although his latest novel, “The Stranger” will be released on March 24, Ridgewood residents will be among the lucky few to be able to purchase the book a day before everyone else. Coben will hold a kickoff appearance for his book tour at 7 p.m.. on Monday, March 23 at Bookends, 211 East Ridgewood Ave.

In this page-turning thriller, the plot centers around a suburban New Jersey family whose picturesque life is threatened by a mysterious man. Once protagonist Adam Price learns a secret about his wife Corinne from the unknown man, he is led to a much darker situation than the secret itself. He discovers that if he doesn’t play his cards exactly right, lives may not only be destroyed, but ended.

Coben’s novels capture relatable situations and characters but surprise readers with twists and turns that keep them guessing for what’s to come.

Execs on notice after Hillary’s book sales tank

Execs on notice after Hillary’s book sales tank

There’s hand-wringing and finger-pointing at Simon & Schuster over the soft performance of Hillary Clinton’s “Hard Choices,” for which she got a $14 million advance, sources said — and which was replaced at No. 1 on the best-seller list this week by an “exposé” about Hillary and Bill Clinton.

The former secretary of state’s tome sold 161,000 copies in its first three weeks, according to Nielsen BookScan — but 85,000 of those were sold in the first week. That number has dropped sharply to 48,000 and 28,000 in subsequent weeks, with the most recent numbers due out Wednesday.

Simon & Schuster shipped an optimistic 1 million copies to stores. Hillary reportedly got $8 million for her last book for the publisher, “Living History,” which sold 438,000 copies in its first week and more than 1.15 million overall.

Adding insult to injury, the new book was pushed from the No. 1 spot on the New York Times best-seller list this week by Edward Klein’s story of the Clintons’ pained relationship with Barack and Michelle Obama, “Blood Feud.” A source close to Hillary has blasted the book, along with its author, as “dastardly” and a combination of “pathological lying, hate and just flat-out creepiness.”
