Critics Review

“From the moment you enter The Hellfire Club’s world of suspense and intrigue and sex and danger, you won’t want to leave. The swampy world of 1954 Washington DC feels vividly relevant in our current day politics. A must read!”–Shonda Rhimes

“Tapper’s excellent sequel to 2018’s The Hellfire Club opens with a highly effective tease… .Tapper makes good use of the rich source material.”

–Publishers Weekly (starred review)“Frank Sinatra, Robert Kennedy and Charlie Marder – you can’t lose with this combination of characters in The Devil May Dance. Jake Tapper explores the thin lines between politics, pop culture and crime, and the story is always gripping, accurate and right on target when it comes to underlining that the past is prologue and politics are always played for keeps.”–Michael Connelly“Jake Tapper’s deep inside knowledge of power, greed and politics fuels this riveting page-turner. Warning: Don’t start this book late at night unless you have no plans the next day.” –Harlan Coben“One helluva a mystery–bursting with early-‘60s luminarios from Bobby Kennedy to Frank Sinatra and his swinging gang. Tapper effortlessly blends a journalist’s sharp eye with a storyteller’s keen sense of suspense: The result is as bracing as the bourbon the book’s Rat Packers knock back and as fizzy as the champagne the Hollywood stars swig. Raise a glass.”–Gillian Flynn
