NEW YORK – Call it Palin Noir.

Joe McGinniss' upcoming biography of Sarah Palin has a cover design more fitting for a detective novel. It has a bold red, black and white color scheme and features a dark, defiant silhouette of the former Alaska governor, her hands on her hips.

The image was released Monday by Broadway Books, which this fall is releasing "The Rogue: Searching for the Real Sarah Palin." McGinniss, known for the classic "The Selling of the President 1968," enraged Palin by moving next door to her in Alaska while researching his new book.
