Can someone heist the majority of the House of Representatives with no one noticing? That's the electoral coup that turns America upside down in The People's House. Until one man notices.

Political reporter Jack Sharpe is logging time at the tail end of a disappointing career - jaded about politics and stung by personal hard knocks. But after an odd election result in the Ohio Congressional district he covers, Sharpe stumbles across irregularities that spur him to dig deeper. The story takes him far beyond his corner of Ohio as he discovers an international plot one that strikes at the heart of American democracy by taking advantage of weaknesses in today's political architecture. His reporting leads to a showdown with a philandering Congressman and Presidential contender, and an eccentric but deadly Russian energy baron. In order to save himself and the country, Sharpe must rekindle his old fire to navigate a treacherous journey through danger, betrayal, and atonement.

I wasn’t sure about it, but it became a real page turner. Might make a good movie.

A little slow at start but picked up quickly. Good story, really nice plotting and a bit of a twist at the ehd. All that, well crafted writing and a timely political message. Well worth the reading, but the narration enhanced it beautifully.

Expected a message...got a well told story as well.

This is so plausible that it’s scary. It’s not a matter of If, rather it’s a matter of when!

A great read and listen

The story is popcorn political fiction. I enjoyed it for what it was. Sadly, the narration detracts from the experience. I do not recommend this as an audio book; enjoy it in another medium.

Excellent political fiction thriller, based on the glaring weaknesses of America’s broken electoral process and partisanship......However, the uncanny similarities and

This was a well crafted story that came alive in the narrator's voice. The beginning was a little too much of an essay on political science more than a novel but I'm not sure how else to catch us up on the modern spectacle that is our election process. The characters were believable and most of the plot's twist and turns made sense. The jumping back and forth in time sometimes made it difficult to follow. The ending was a little less than satisfactory with so much still needing to be solved. You would almost think the author was planning on a sequel, lol.


great suspense after a very dry start

first rate political thriller
unresolved and truly terrifying plot which our political parties in their own self interests have created

well conceived plot

This is a niche thriller several cuts above the usual. Plus, besides the action, one gets an actual sense the dirty politics happening behind the scenes where power and profits meet politics and elections.

Jack Sharpe is a mensch
