President Thomas
Longbridge, former Governor of the state of Texas has, as his most
trusted advisor, Seth Harrington. Mr. Harrington is a very
well-known and charming televangelist. He had taken the
Governor of Texas and turned him into the leader of the free world.
There is a history of political double dealing and dishonesty that
started in Texas and is now located in the East Wing of the White
House.
As three openings suddenly appear on the Supreme
Court, President Longbridge depends on his advisor to help him choose
persons to fill these vacancies in time for the Spring session on the
Court. This session will have an extraordinary number of cases
that could literally change constitutional law. Along with this
mess, a senior partner of a prestigious Wall Street law firm dies
suddenly of not so natural causes. This causes some of the law
partners and the police to try and frame a murder suspect. Said
suspect, Mayson Corelli, is an associate of the firm who has worked
with the deceased and has suffered much sexual harrassment from him
which, the police think, makes her the number one suspect.
Tyler Waddill, another associate and actually the largest impediment
to her job advancement, comes to her rescue. As an arrest
warrant for Mayson is imminent they run and a national manhunt is
initiated.
This is a must read for mystery/legal/romance
fans and anything politically correct or probably incorrect
stories. It is a revolting tale of an attempt to control the
Supreme Court of the United States in order to change the face of
politics in America. I have to admit that I hung on every page
but really enjoyed the chase more than the corruption. Reading
about these two people who were on the run and what they had to do to
survive kept me on the edge of my chair. Even the idea that
something like this is possible in the government could send a shiver
or two up your spine. Good luck to Mr. Brown and, I'm looking
forward to the next book.
