Contents of the Dead Man's Life

By Stockton Carter

In this near-future political satire, Representative Gordon Strange abruptly passes away under thoroughly, unquestionably normal circumstances. Steven Day, his campaign employee, must (allegedly) conjoin with the late politician's lingering spirit (AKA Between Life and Death, a mostly-scientific phenomena) before his Congressional seat falls into the hands of the opposition: the Equal America Party. Steven--or Strange, or both--must learn to navigate the increasingly bizarre political climate of late 2020s America while preventing the EAP from passing the most draconian legislation ever seen in US history. Shamelessly irreverent, political incorrect, and sometimes frighteningly prescient, Steven's journey will have you wondering whether you're reading satire or a forecast.
