Unicorn horns? Rooster dung? Welcome to the paranoia of European Royalty in days gone by. In royal courts obsessed with the threat of poison, kings and queens alike found wild -- and wildly ineffective -- ways to defend themselves against potential murderers. The trouble is, they were already poisoning themselves with their food, clothes, medicine, and even their cosmetics.

In this witty and entertaining history, Eleanor Herman introduces us to a world of feces, pus, lice, worms, vermin, and vomit.  She takes us on a journey through the awful hygiene of the Middle Ages and tells the story of famous deaths from Mozart and Caravaggio to Napoleon and Edward VI.  Were they murdered?  Or were their strange deaths simply the natural end in a world before modern medicine?

Authors on the Air host Pam Stack welcomes the multi-talented creative force of Nathan Singer to the show.  

Nathan Singer is a novelist, playwright, composer, and experimental performing artist. He is also the lead vocalist and guitarist for award-winning “ultra-blues” band The Whiskey Shambles. His published novels are the controversial and critically-acclaimed A Prayer for Dawn, Chasing the Wolf, In the Light of You, The Song in the Squall, Transorbital, and Blackchurch Furnace. He currently lives in Cincinnati, Ohio where he is working on a multitude of new projects.   About BLACKCHURCH FURNACE:  Blackchurch is not the sort of place where folks are inclined to be up in each other’s business, and strange house guests at a neighbor’s pad are not likely to be noticed, let alone remarked upon. So on a day in early October, when two beat-up-looking crackers, a pregnant teenage whore, and a small, androgynous Japanese woman in a large-brimmed sombrero, sunglasses, and wrapped in a patchwork down comforter came to call on D’antre Philips with heads full of prophetic visions and tales of the apocalypse already in progress, nary an eye was blinked. When the end times do come to Blackchurch, it’ll be a day like any other day. And the next day will be too. 

Blackchurch Furnace is a scathing satire of faith, family, and all that we hold dear, where the only thing you can believe in are the voices in your own head…and they are every bit as crazy as you are.       Be sure to check out this YouTube videos and music.

Authors on the Air host Pam Stack visits with JOHN GILSTRAP today to discuss his new book SCORPION STRIKE.  John is one of my all-time favorite people and writes one of my favorite series, the Jonathan Grave stories.

An island paradise held hostage. A band of dangerous killers unleashed. A sinister plot that could push the superpowers to the brink of war. The perfect formula for explosive suspense in John Gilstrap’s electrifying new Jonathan Grave thriller . . .

For Jonathan Grave and Gail Bonneville, the Crystal Sands Resort is the perfect getaway—until gunshots shatter the night. Wealthy guests are yanked out of their sleep, herded like animals, forced to submit to their captors’ demands. But Jonathan and Gail are no ordinary vacationers. The assassins who invade their bungalow receive a deadly surprise. And two determined, skilled operatives escape into the jungle. 

 

Jonathan and Gail are not the only free agents on the island. Cut off from his usual tactical team, with a pair of unlikely allies he can’t fully trust, Grave’s only hope of reliable back-up is his partner Boxers, who’s hundreds of miles—and hours—away. It won’t be long before the invaders turn this tropical paradise into the powderkeg that will set off global chaos. Grave may be without weapons, but he’s never without resources. Bold action is the only solution. Like the scorpion, Grave must strike fast and hard . . .

Authors on the Air host Pam Stack welcomes retired Seal Team 6 warrior Don Mann and his writing partner Ralph Pelluzzo to discuss their new book SEAL TEAM SIX: HUNT THE VIPER.  

HUNT THE VIPER is set in the current geopolitical hot spot that is all over headlines: Syria. While helping a small Kurdish border town organize a resistance army against the Assad government, Crocker helps a medical crew escape a village attacked by the Viper, a notoriously vicious ISIS general.  When the Viper’s men kidnap an American Doctors Without Borders volunteer, Crocker is prepared to do whatever it takes to launch a rescue mission and save the American woman’s life.    

Don Mann has already shared with the world his incredible experiences as one of America’s elite warriors. Until 1998, Mann was on active duty with SEAL Team Six. Since then, he has been deployed to the Middle East on numerous occasions in support of the war against terrorism. Many active-duty SEALs on SEAL Team Six are men that Don has educated in urban, arctic, desert, river, and jungle warfare, as well as in close-quarters battle and military operations in urban terrain.

Ralph Pezzullo:  "When I was five years old my father joined the Foreign Service of the State Department. His job took us to Washington, DC, Mexico, South Vietnam, Bolivia, Colombia, Guatemala, Uruguay and Nicaragua. We lived in Saigon during the Tonkin Gulf Incident, the overthrow of Diem, a number of other coup d'etats and almost daily Vietcong terrorist attacks against Americans. After that, we survived three years gasping for air at 13,000 feet in La Paz, Bolivia during the time that Che Guevarra was trying to build a guerrilla base in that country. By 1980 my father was the US Ambassador to Nicaragua, and I was there witnessing the first days of the Sandinista Revolution."

Authors on the Air host Pam Stack welcomes best-selling author Susan Crandall to the show.  Susan's new book is THE MYTH OF PERPETUAL SUMMER.         Susan grew up in a small Indiana town, married a guy from that town, and then moved to Chicago for a while.

From the national bestselling author of Whistling Past the Graveyard comes a moving coming-of-age tale set in the tumultuous sixties that harkens to both Ordinary Grace and The Secret Life of Bees.     

Tallulah James’s parents’ volatile relationship, erratic behavior, and hands-off approach to child rearing set tongues to wagging in their staid Mississippi town, complicating her already uncertain life. She takes the responsibility of shielding her family’s reputation and raising her younger twin siblings onto her youthful shoulders.    If not for the emotional constants of her older brother, Griff, and her old guard Southern grandmother, she would be lost. When betrayal and death arrive hand in hand, she takes to the road, headed to what turns out to be the not-so-promised land of Southern California. The dysfunction of her childhood still echoes throughout her scattered family, sending her brother on a disastrous path and drawing her home again.

Authors on the Air host Pam Stack welcomes award-winning author Terrence McCauley back to the studio to discuss THE FAIRFAX INCIDENT.  

 New York City was a powder keg waiting to explode…

Manhattan, 1933. Charlie Doherty may have been kicked off the force after The Grand Central Massacre, but thanks to a wealthy benefactor, his private detective business is booming. Catering to the city’s wealthy elite, Doherty is making a good living chasing down wayward spouses and runaway socialites when the case of a lifetime lands in his lap. Mrs. Fairfax, a wealthy widow, hires Doherty to prove her husband’s suicide wasn’t actually a suicide. It was murder. 

At his benefactor's urging, Doherty takes the case. He expects to pocket a nice chunk of change to prove what everyone already knows: Walter Fairfax walked into his office in the Empire State Building one morning, took a phone call, and shot himself. But Charlie took the widow's money, so he begins to dig.

He quickly finds out there is more to the Fairfax incident than a simple suicide. Before long, he discovers that Mr. Fairfax was leading a double life; running with a dangerous crowd that has a sinister agenda that threatens to plunge Charlie’s city – and his country – into another war.

In an investigation that quickly involves global implications, Doherty finds himself against not only some of the most powerful people in New York City, but against the most evil men in the world.

We all know about the three famous Kennedy sons Jack, Bobby, and Teddy.  But in her new biography EUNICE, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Eileen McNamara profiles the Kennedy sister who left her mark on American society in ways that her brothers could only envy. She was a social advocate, lobbyist, feminist, and -- most famously -- the woman who made the Special Olympics into the worldwide phenomenon they are today. 

In the latest episode of TRUE STORY, Brian talks with Eileen McNamara about Eunice's ferocious determination and competitiveness -- and the emotional contradictions of life as a Kennedy.
