The United States is in the grips of a major constitutional crisis, an election too-close- to call, in which even the Electoral College fails to select the President. The unabashedly ambitious and stunningly beautiful democrat Vice President Charlotte Reid, Harvard law grad and spouse to the world's richest software magnate, rose to the top of the ticket when the sitting President mysteriously announced he would not seek reelection for a second term.

The United States is in the grips of a major constitutional crisis, an election too-close- to call, in which even the Electoral College fails to select the President. The unabashedly ambitious and stunningly beautiful democrat Vice President Charlotte Reid, Harvard law grad and spouse to the world's richest software magnate, rose to the top of the ticket when the sitting President mysteriously announced he would not seek reelection for a second term. But she has fallen a mere three votes short of the 270 needed to defeat the winner of the popular vote - the equally ambitious and charismatic ex- NFL quarterback, Heisman Trophy winner, Rhodes Scholar, oilman and sitting Governor of Oklahoma, David Houston. Amid the chaos, Robert Cannon, an investigator for a boutique Georgetown law firm is pulled out of retirement by the CIA to carry out a new assignment. Strangely, not an off - shore obscure termination, away from American soil for which he had become somewhat renown in intelligence circles, rather a 100-year-old Mississippi congressman. But less than 24 hours after the CIA orders, agents from the Pentagon approach him about a similar mission - the target; a justice of the US Supreme Court. Hence, the most incredible political and constitutional legal drama of our time unfolds as the future of the American Presidency is put into the hands of a man severely haunted by his dark past and equally confused about his future. Timothy Burton Anderson is a lawyer with a major Utah law firm. During law school, he collaborated on several projects with the famous syndicated columnist and investigative journalist Jack Anderson (no relation). He is the author of the novel The Reign of the Stavka and is the Anderson of the noted federal copyright case Anderson v. Stallone, resolved on appeal pursuant to a confidential settlement in 1992 involving the feature film Rocky IV. He resides in St. George, Utah
