About this listen

An idealistic young woman finds working a political campaign can be murder in this romantic suspense novel by "a master storyteller" (Mary Higgins Clark).

Young Erin Hartsock arrives in Washington DC with ambition—and little interest in politics. However, when she's offered a position on a congresswoman's campaign for the Senate, she's more than happy to flee her dead-end job to take on what she expects will be boring administrative work . . .

But as the campaign heats up, disturbing events follow. There's a string of dangerous fires, a violent attack, and a seemingly accidental death. Erin begins to wonder about her colleagues all while they grow suspicious of her. Someone's got a secret—and with the election looming, Erin must quickly uncover who's behind the chaos before she becomes a prime candidate for murder.

Some things never change

Its nice to listen to a light story about how the political sausage is made from the point of view of the good guys. This is at least 30 years old, so it's a bit old fashioned. I think this author really enjoyed learning about different facets of life via the medium of novels for young women.

what's to like?

I found the tropes too obvious and the voice too sophmoric. Athough I quit before finishing it when I realized it wasn't going to get better.
