An epic story that moves with force, passion, and
authority, Balance of Power begins when President
Kerry Kilcannon and television journalist Lara Costello at
last decide to marry. But the momentous occasion is
followed by an unspeakable tragedy—a massacre of innocents
by gunfire—that ignites a high-stakes game of politics and
legal maneuvering in the Senate, the courtroom, and across
the country, which the charismatic but untested young
President is determined to win at any cost. But in the
incendiary clash over gun violence and gun rights, the cost
to both Kilcannons may be even higher than he imagined.
