It’s late September and things had been peaceful in the tiny mountaintop town of Serena. The farm fields and gardens had produced a bountiful harvest, including the new Raven Brook Falls Winery with its acres of vineyards on the outskirts of town. Residents of Serena are abuzz with excitement over a Hollywood film about to be made near the winery on the site where murder and scandal had once occurred. But none of this is a threat to local residents. Autumn is in the air and all is well, until Serena’s Chief of Police, Jeff Farley, is called to the Sutton Farm. The gruesome discovery of a murder victim in Jim Sutton’s garden followed by the appearance of a mysterious scarecrow in the midst of town, seemed to be unrelated. Chief Farley, with the aid of psychologists, Kate and Devlin McManus, are once again thrust into a web of intrigue as one horrifying incident after another generates an atmosphere of terror and paranoia among Serena’s citizens. Chief Farley’s murder investigation is repeatedly hindered by an elusive diabolical prankster who is terrifying the children of his town and a film company of outsiders who might be harboring a dangerous suspect. Chief Farley and a cast of familiar characters return in a spellbinding tale that captivates the reader as it unfolds with as many twists and turns as a mountain road. The Silent Scream of the Straw Man abounds with enough mystery, excitement, humor, and romance to keep the pages turning until the end.

STRAW MEN is an historical novel thats set in motion when, on July 2, 1881, Charles Julius Guiteau shoots President James Garfield in a Washington, DC train station. It quickly became apparent that Guiteau was a lunatic - he loudly proclaimed that he had acted entirely on his own, having been instructed by God to remove the President in order to save the country. But was Garfields assassination truly the work of a deranged, lone gunman? The Byzantine political alliances that Americas Gilded Age had inherited from the trauma of Civil War, together with the tangled, and very public, personal relationships of the countrys most powerful leaders at the time, pointed toward the clear possibility of a larger, darker political plot. Had Guiteau, wittingly or not, merely been the sharp end of a well-disguised political conspiracy leading to a coup detat? The nations doubts had to be put to rest, so the Secret Service - formed during the Civil War to combat an epidemic of counterfeiting - was called upon to mount a national investigation designed to sort out the whole truth behind Guiteaus attack. The shocking story thats gradually uncovered in the course of this investigation reveals that all the players, great and small, in this densely complicated historical drama were being set up and used for one hidden purpose or another.

Larson helps readers become consumers of persuasion. The book presents persuasion through the examination of various aspects of popular culture--politics, mass media, advertising, the information superhighway--as they exemplify and teach critical theories of persuasion. Its multi-chapter focus on language and focus on critical thinking are combined with readability, a conversational engagement with the reader, and current verbal and visual examples of persuasion in action. Woven throughout this framework, Larson provides ample and understandable coverage of persuasion theory, research, and ethics consistently and repeatedly tied back to the theme of the book--the development of critical consumers of all forms of persuasion.
