Amid political gridlock in Washington, Elizabeth Stone, a visionary federal judge is elected president. She realizes significant achievements by working with both major political parties. Then she is assassinated. There are no clues, suspects or apparent motive. Is this the perfect murder? Determined to see that justice is done, FBI agent George Baker penetrates the twisted sub-culture of the underworld, breaking through the wall of silence that shields the perpetrator of such a heinous crime. The killer is charged, convicted and sentenced to death. But the question of motive remains unanswered. Did he act alone, or was he hired by someone? Further investigation establishes linkages between the president's assassin, several corrupt politicians and The Company of Friends, a mysterious group with no scruples about how they pursue their interests. Are they involved, and if so, how? The reader is taken through the seamy side of American politics, exposing how money can buy influence, breeding corruption and subverting the democratic process. The multi-layered structure designed to insulate the masterminds behind this house of corruption is brought down by the relentless efforts of the FBI and its law enforcement partners. What makes the narrative so compelling is its sheer audacity and scope. Issues ranging from the economy, the environment, corruption in business and politics, to Qu�bec secessionists, create a sense of the complexity of the world lived at the presidential level. The plot is engrossing, dramatic and suspenseful.
