CNN anchor and chief Washington correspondent Jake Tapper talks about his new novel, “The Hellfire Club,” a political thriller set in the 1950’s McCarthy Era in which figures such as Sen. John F. Kennedy, Vice President Richard Nixon and President Eisenhower appear as key characters.
The book centers around a reluctant congressman who finds himself in the middle of a conspiracy theory that reaches the highest offices of government and threatens his marriage, principles, career and life.
Tapper hosts a one-hour weekday program, “The Lead with Jake Tapper,” which debuted in March, 2013, and has hosted CNN’s Sunday morning show, “State of the Union,” since June, 2015.
A book signing will follow the program.
