All the Demons Are Here

by Jake Tapper Narrated by Meg Price, Rob Shapiro

Overview

From the bestselling author of The Devil May Dance and The Hellfire Club comes a breathtaking thriller that explores the chaotic underworlds of the 1970's after an AWOL US Marine returns home to a strange and dangerous country.

It's 1977. Ike and Lucy, Senator Charlie and Margaret Marder's kids, are grown up-and in trouble. US Marine Ike has gone somewhat off the grid, working on Evel Knievel's pit crew in Montana, when-after a bar fight-he has to flee a neo-Nazi gang and seek refuge in the woods with a group of Vietnam veterans. Lucy, a reporter, has become the star of the brand new Washington DC tabloid, the Sentinel, and is breaking all sorts of stories about a serial killer and falling in with the Lyons, the wealthy family that owns the newspaper, British immigrants with quite a different view of journalism than Lucy's heroes Woodward and Bernstein.

As their lives spiral out of control, Ike goes on the road with Evel Knievel, the Vietnam veterans, and other societal outcasts, first heading to Graceland to mourn Elvis Presley, then going to confront politicians-for grievances real and perceived-on an island in Georgia. Lucy, too, is at that retreat with both her parents and the Lyon family, attendees at this retreat where the future of the post-Nixon Republican party will be decided. The confrontation turns violent and both Ike and Lucy have to make decisions that will affect them for the rest of their lives. *

Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

Jake Tapper has become a master storyteller with his dazzling skill of weaving real people and events with a cast of characters as gripping as any in fiction.” 
 —Michael Connelly

“Jake Tapper’s latest, All The Demons Are Here, is an absolute page-turner chronicling the continuing adventures of the Marder clan. Evel Knievel? Check.  UFOs?  Check?  A serial killer stalking the nation’s capital?  Check. And all set during one of America’s secretly weirdest years: 1977.  Powered by dual protagonists Ike and Lucy Marder, the book sends the reader pinballing across America, looking for answers in a strange, post-Watergate world.  Tapper’s deep knowledge of American history is on display, as is his obvious love of American pop culture— the good, the bad, and the bizarre. ‘Merica, baby!!!!"
 —Gillian Flynn

SEPTEMBER 2023 -- AudioFile

Set in 1977, the third Charlie and Margaret Marder mystery focuses on Ike and Lucy, the Marders' adult children. The novel alternates between the perspective of Ike, portrayed by Rob Shapiro, and Lucy, portrayed by Meg Price. As the country struggles to move beyond Nixon/Watergate, Ike, a U.S. Marine/Vietnam vet, takes off with Evel Knievel's crew. Shapiro, the stronger narrator, infuses Ike with defiance, despair, and determination. Lucy is a DC journalist struggling with her integrity as the "news" becomes sensationalized. Price struggles with supporting characters but voices Lucy with resolve and passion. During this unique historical period, the siblings' lives become intertwined, and they're forced to make decisions that will impact everything around them. K.S.M. © AudioFile 2023, Portland, Maine
