Election rigging. Hacking. Ruthless campaign tactics. Is it fiction or today's reality?
Election-year politics is an ugly game that gets dirtier every two years. When the campaign of a rising candidate is targeted with intimidation, arson, and cyberattacks, attention immediately turns to his chief opponent in the primaries as the instigator: Senator Alicia Standish.
Drawn to inconsistencies in the suicide of a political mega-donor a month earlier, FBI Special Agent Victoria Larsen finds herself trapped in a quagmire of internal politics. With no other place to turn when the state becomes a political battlefield, she enlists the help of journalist Tierra Campos to track down a series of leads that could provide answers. Little does she know that Tierra has her own problems.
Since unraveling the conspiracy behind the Brockhampton massacre, Tierra has become a media superstar. Her imminent departure from the online news organization Front Burner has created a rift with her editor that has become impossible to bridge. Forced to operate outside of their normal channels, Tierra and Victoria must put all the pieces together to catch the conspirators manipulating America’s first primary. As assumptions lead to shocking conclusions, they must make a bold move before the presidential race is altered forever.
