About Jerry Jay Carroll

Jerry Jay Carroll is a former San Francisco journalist, nominated twice for the Pulitzer Prize and author of six acclaimed novels, among them Top Dog, a NYT bestseller newly revised and available on Kindle. His latest is The Greater Liars, the finish to the story of what the White House knew about the Japanese fleet and Pearl Harbor but kept from the military command there--for a sufficient but tragic reason. End Times is about a dazzling man on a lonely road stopped by a kindly policeman. Rex has no memory of anything, not even that he is the creation of Lucifer to bring on the End Times. The cop, at risk of his soul and joined by a beautiful redhead in the celebrity industry, must stop him after he becomes the world's biggest name and runs for president.

You might also like The Horror Writer, a thriller about a pulp fiction writer who only hankers for literary respect but ends up in an epic battle in an isolated jungle resort with aliens who think it is time to pull the plug on the Earth experiment. He is helped by a glamorous hedge-fund executive and Ned Bunky, the All-American boy who is one of his fictional creations. Or is he?

The Great Liars Feb 11, 2014

by Jerry Jay Carroll

$2.99

It seems like easy duty. Lieutenant Lowell Brady is ordered to London as a secret liaison to Winston Churchill, who is working his way back to power as the threat from Germany grows. All this dashing officer has to do is pass on messages, a made-to-order job for a handsome rake with no greater ambition than finding a rich woman to marry. The Navy would have kicked out the scoundrel long before if it weren't for the influence of his stepfather, the powerful Senator from Georgia, who got Brady a billet as a minor White House aide. “You’d be nothing without me,” he says. Brady, no fool whatever else his faults, is the first to agree. It's a good thing his mother adores him and the senator is firmly under her thumb.
Roosevelt and Churchill see war coming, and struggle to get their countries ready, no easy job when America wants nothing to do with Europe and its troubles. When the balloon goes up, Brady expects to be behind a desk far from danger. But the ailing Harry Hopkins, Roosevelt’s friend and closest adviser, takes a shine to him. When war breaks out, Brady goes with him to London for a top-secret pow-wow with Churchill during the Blitz, and then on to Moscow and the Kremlin for talks with the sinister Stalin.
It is dangerous that close to power, as Brady further finds out when he becomes part of the small circle that knows Roosevelt intends to get America into the war before it is too late, even if it means sacrificing the Pacific Fleet. Against his selfish nature -- swinish wouldn't be too strong -- Brady goes out of channel to warn of the coming attack. Caught red-handed, his punishment is being ordered to join MacArthur in the Philippines. When he survives Corregidor, he is dispatched to Guadalcanal. They want shut him up for good, but Brady is as slippery as an eel.
Years after the war, Smithsonian researcher Harriet Gallatin comes across his story while interviewing veterans at an old soldiers' home. Skeptical at first, she becomes a believer when the FBI and then the CIA take a menacing interest in her research. If the truth gets out, reputations will be destroyed and political careers ended. One thing is clear. The two of them have to disappear fast.

Alice in Wonderland meets Wolves of Wall Street in Jerry Jay Carroll’s brilliant and witty debut novel. Revised and available for the first time on Kindle.

William B. Ingersol sits in an office high above Wall Street conducting cuthroat corporate takeovers. Just another day at work, it seems, business as usual. He puts his head down on his desk and wakes up as a big dog, trying to survive in a strange new world of wizards, fairies and monsters. To get back home, he has to choose between good and evil, devil or angel. That’s not as easy as you might think for a man used to playing with a stacked deck, not to mention both sides against the middle.
