Trump's niece is reportedly publishing a 'harrowing and salacious' tell-all book this summer
Another tell-all book on President Trump is reportedly in the works — this time, from his niece.
Mary Trump, the daughter of Trump's late brother Fred Trump Jr., in August will publish a tell-all book titled Too Much And Never Enough, which features "harrowing and salacious" stories about the president, The Daily Beast reports.
In the book, Mary Trump reportedly reveals that she was a primary source for The New York Times' massive 2018 story that concluded Trump "participated in dubious tax schemes during the 1990s, including instances of outright fraud, that greatly increased the fortune he received from his parents." She'll reportedly explain that she provided the Times with Fred Trump Sr.'s tax returns, as well as "other highly confidential family financial documentation," and she'll delve into "her involvement working with journalists Russ Buettner, Susanne Craig, and Barstow to crack the story."

Mary Trump previously spoke out publicly in a 2000 interview amid a "bitter family court battle" over Fred Trump Sr.'s will, the report notes, at the time saying that "my aunt and uncles should be ashamed of themselves."
The book from Trump's niece is reportedly set to be published by Simon & Schuster on August 11 ahead of the Republican National Convention, which begins on August 24. Simon & Schuster is also set to publish a book by John Bolton later this month, which the publisher says will allege he committed other "Ukraine-like transgressions."
