About this ebook
After the governor of Maryland is assassinated, an investigative reporter uncovers an insidious plot that stretches far beyond the state borders in this “captivating political thriller” (Kirkus Reviews).
“[An] entertaining fiction debut.”—Publishers Weekly
Reporter Bobby Kelleher’s routine day in the Maryland capitol is shattered when Governor Barney Paulsen is assassinated during a public speech. Determined to bring the murderer to justice, Bobby teams up with his colleague and embarks on a relentless pursuit of the truth.
He initially suspects the leader of a radical feminist group, who has not-so-secretly been supporting a gubernatorial candidate of her own. But once he discovers a right-wing extremist—the ex-head of the KKK with his own motives for wanting the governor gone—also attended the speech, Bobby worries he may just be in over his head.
As the investigation deepens and alliances are uncovered, Bobby stumbles on a shocking and dangerous conspiracy—and realizes that if he’s not careful, he could be the killer’s next target. . . .
