The powerful and riveting new book in the multimillion-selling Killing series by Bill O'Reilly and Martin Dugard

Autumn 1944. World War II is nearly over in Europe but is escalating in the Pacific, where American soldiers face an opponent who will go to any length to avoid defeat. The Japanese army follows the samurai code of Bushido, stipulating that surrender is a form of dishonor. Killing the Rising Sun takes readers to the bloody tropical-island battlefields of Peleliu and Iwo Jima and to the embattled Philippines, where General Douglas MacArthur has made a triumphant return and is plotting a full-scale invasion of Japan.

Across the globe in Los Alamos, New Mexico, Dr. J. Robert Oppenheimer and his team of scientists are preparing to test the deadliest weapon known to mankind. In Washington, DC, FDR dies in office and Harry Truman ascends to the presidency, only to face the most important political decision in history: whether to use that weapon. And in Tokyo, Emperor Hirohito, who is considered a deity by his subjects, refuses to surrender, despite a massive and mounting death toll. Told in the same page-turning style of Killing Lincoln, Killing Kennedy, Killing Jesus, Killing Patton, and Killing Reagan, this epic saga details the final moments of World War II like never before.

Cute and roomy
This is a roomy and well made purse. It's a modern and chic style as well. The print is well made and the materials are good. It isn't really stiff but does have structure. The straps are stitched nicely and made of a medium brown leather like material. It's a really cute bag that is decently made so it's a great price for the value.

Best Handbag Iv ever Purchased from Amazon
Size: Large, Color: 2-croco Purple
I was a scrolling to purchase a new Handbag. Many of my Handbags were ruined in my storage due to a water leak and mold damage. So feeling sorry for myself a new handbag just may cheer me up. I saw this BEAUTIFUL handbag and looking at hundred’s of bags on Amazon. Then after close inspection on this particular handbag I really liked I realized it’s the exact same handbag Iv been using the past several years. Lol 😂 Mine is now a bit worn and starting to show which after 2-3 years of continual and I have a tendency too be hard on my handbags. It’s super easy to wear on my arm or just by the very sturdy handle. It holds up to the weight of all my things So it’s time for several new ones now that my collection has been destroyed. I have to say I still LOVE this handbag. The Color, Style and multiple pockets organizes my belongings. It’s just and Amazing handbag and the price point is great an absolute plus. It stacks up to other high priced brand names. Even after being well worn I still receive compliments on this handbag. Now the decision do I buy it again since Purple is my favorite color or maybe get it in a different color. Maybe Red for the holidays or Black for versatility? Still purple is my favorite. I’ll never be able to decide but if you’re considering a new handbag I’d give this one a try you won’t regret it. Enjoy 👜

Beautiful presentation and great quality! 👜✨
Size: Large, Color: 1-black/Beige+red, Size: Large, Color: 1-black/Beige+red
This handbag really exceeded my expectations. The presentation was beautiful, and the material feels high-quality and durable. I especially love the small pouch that comes with it — I used it for a quick meeting with just my essentials inside, and it looked elegant and simple on its own. The larger bag has plenty of space, the stitching looks well done, and the overall design feels very sturdy and stylish. It’s a great set that you can use for everyday wear or for quick outings with the small pouch. I’m very happy with this purchase!

Study and Attractive, but limited space.
Size: Large, Color: 3-ostrich Purple
I've owned it since Sept 2025 and used it about three times. The Pros are that it's a really rigid purse, like luggage. It doesn't collapse, which probably means it can handle a roughing up. (I'm not hard on my purses.) Another pro is that it's VERY attractive. I got the purple and it was quite elegant. The cons are that things don't fit into it smoothly. There's a zip pocket in the middle of the purse which is cumbersome. And though it fits a lot, there's a lot of work to configure it.
