Lawmaking can be a murderous affair.

If any day calls for a soothing glass of wine, it's today. One moment, Capitol Hill lobbyist Karina Cardinal is having a heated discussion with Senator Harper, who just torpedoed her latest health care legislation initiative. The next thing she knows, after a cryptic remark, the senator is dead at her feet. Hours later, she's still so rattled she wakes to a freezing apartment because she forgot to close her back door. Or did she?

When her boyfriend, FBI cybercrimes expert Mike Finnegan, is suddenly reassigned to work a new case, he's got bad news and worse news. The bad: the senator's death was no heart attack-it was assassination by a hacker disabling his pacemaker. Worse: Karina's a "person of interest".

Certain that status could change to "suspect" at any moment, Karina begins her own back-channel investigation into who could have wanted the senator dead. Of course, in Washington, that means playing politics and following the money trail. A trail that leads to more murders...and possibly leaving the door open for a killer to change her status to "dead."Perfect for readers who enjoy smart, action-packed mysteries featuring high stakes adventure. Fans of Janet Evanovich will feel right at home with Karina Cardinal's blend of suspense and humor, while fans of J.D. Robb will adore the gripping political thriller by Award-Winning Author Ellen Butler.
