Mystery | Thriller
After being discharged from the United States Marine Corps,
Stan ends up in Dallas where he intends to finish law
school. In the spring of 1976, while attending SMU, he is
recruited into the Republican party, elected county
chairman, and finds himself helping President Gerald Ford in
his campaign against Jimmy Carter. The campaign is marred,
however by an untimely FBI investigation into the financial
dealings of a major party contributor, Brad Thornton. The investigation unleashes an avalanche of misfortune
beginning with the alleged murder-suicide of Stan�s friend,
Rob Shepard, his wife Cindy and their three children and
culminating in the resignation of two Republican candidates
for the 67th District's state representative seat. Stan, who
can't believe his best friend could have murdered his
family, launches his own personal investigation to clear
Rob's name. When the investigation turns up new evidence
that threatens members of a powerful Mexican drug cartel,
Stan becomes the target of Cartel thugs and hit men.
Undaunted by these threats, Stan enlists the help of a
resourceful classmate, Paula Waters, and a law professor,
Harry Hertel (aka Snake) and undertakes a dangerous mission
to extract a key witness held by the Cartel at a Mexican resort.
Still saddled with the responsibly to field a candidate in
the 67th District Stan recruits his assistant, Kristina
Tenison, for the job. Kristina is reluctant to run as no
woman has ever been elected to this office since
Reconstruction, but when Stan agrees to be her campaign
manager, and promises her she'll win, she reluctantly enters
the race against the veteran incumbent, Ron Wells. But as
the election draws near and she still finds herself lagging
in the polls, she wonders if she hasn't made a big mistake
and questions Stan's continued assurances that she'll win.
