Overview“An exciting romp through the maze of Washington politics.”—The Dallas Morning News During a gala benefit for the Democratic Party's hottest presidential hopeful at the glittering Kennedy Center, a young woman dies, a victim of quick and brutal violence. The murder weapon belongs to the candidate. The chief suspect is the candidate's son. The dynamic campaign of Senator Kenneth Ewald has collided with a tragedy that can send his son to jail—and wreck his own career. George Washington University law professor Mac Smith comes out of the classroom to tackle a case that's bad for Senator Ewald but may prove even worse for the nation. And Smith himself marches straight into the firing line of an unscrupulous TV evangelist who gets his orders from God and a dethroned Central American dictator who takes interference from no one. . . . “Margaret Truman has become a first-rate mystery writer.”—Los Angeles Times Book Review Full Product DetailsAuthor: Margaret TrumanPublisher: Random House USA Inc Imprint: Fawcett Volume: 9 Dimensions: Width: 10.80cm , Height: 1.90cm , Length: 17.20cm Weight: 0.204kg ISBN: 9780449212080ISBN 10: 0449212084 Pages: 352 Publication Date: 28 May 1990 Audience: General/trade , General Format: Paperback Publisher's Status: Active Availability: In Print This item will be ordered in for you from one of our suppliers.
