- Synopsis
- From bestselling, master political novelist Richard Condon comes a collection of three of his most well-known thrillers. His heroes deal with assassinations, greed, and corruption in the fabric of American politics. The Manchurian Candidate: War hero Sergeant Raymond Shaw is a sleeper assassin, programmed to kill by his former North Korean captors during his time as a prisoner of war. Now he's been returned to the US, with a mission to assassinate a candidate for US President--and his former commander is the only man who can stop him.Winter Kills: While riding in a Philadelphia motorcade, an American president is assassinated. This one is fictional, but this story is haunted by the mysteries of the Kennedy Assassination--with a complicated conspiracy that involves movie stars, oil barons, and shadowy agents at the highest levels of government.Prizzi’s Honor: Charley Partanna is a hitman for New York's most dangerous crime family--and so is his wife, Irene. When Irene cheats the Prizzis out of a sizeable sum of money, it's Charley they demand justice from. Now Charley must choose between his employers and the love of his life. A mafia thriller that will have you on the edge of your seat.
