Palace Council is a 2008 thriller novel by American author Stephen L. Carter. The book was Carter's third work of fiction.
The novel forms the third part of Carter's Elm Harbor series, which began with 2002's The Emperor of Ocean Park, and continued with New England White, which was published in 2007.[2] Set in Cold War America, and featuring protagonist Eddie Wesley encountering a string of real historical figures and major events, intertwined with conspiracy theories, the book was significantly less well-received than Carter's first two novels, drawing praise for its detail, world-building, and the accuracy of its historical portrayals, but also some criticism for the prose and the levels of coincidence that "frequently stretched belief".[3]
