Gallery of Fools
After returning from a vacation in California with his wife and family, the author is reluctantly drawn into a crime involving the theft of priceless paintings from a Manhattan art gallery, perpetrated by members of his family, and escapes at the end only by the grace of a benevolent deity. In June 2007, one of the paintings, Monet’s “Nympheas,” sold at auction in London for $36 million. Tuccille tries to find redemption in a quixotic political campaign when he runs for Governor of New York, only to have his life unravel before his eyes in a way he could not have foreseen.

Heretic: Confessions of an ex-Catholic Rebel
This is a serious story told in a seriocomic vein, dramatizing a struggle that most thinking people go through at various stages of their own lives. Everyone grapples with the BIG questions from time to time and tries to find meaning in organized religion or some suitable alternative. This story will let people know that they are not alone, that there are answers out there and within ourselves if we take the time to look for them. The greatest lesson of all is that we never really stop developing. The quest for spiritual fulfillment is one without an end as we keep on making new discoveries.
While the tone is irreverent and the material is often sexually graphic, I believe this book speaks directly to everyone who is concerned about an afterlife and his or her personal salvation. It doesn’t matter whether seekers after truth attempt to find meaning in organized religion or through an alternative spiritual path, only that they are concerned about the quality of life beyond the grave. Atheists and agnostics are also looking for answers to their own questions about these weighty issues.

Alan Shrugged: Alan Greenspan, the World’s Most Powerful Banker
Best-selling biographer Jerome Tuccille examines the life of Greenspan, identifies the defining moments of his life, and explores the major influences on his political and economic philosophy. The author draws on extensive interviews with Greenspan’s closest friends and professional associates to reveal the complex man behind the dour public personage.

Trump
“Trump reads like a movie script. This unauthorized biography is compelling reading. For those curious about the inside machinations of Trump’s peculiar, sometimes glamorous world, this book is ideal.”
--People magazine

Kingdom: The Story of the Hunts of Texas
“Tuccille is a master chronicler of events. He also brings in a kaleidoscope of American History during the earlier decades of this century that both delights and engrosses the reader.”
--Fort Worth Star-Telegram
