Summary:
From bestselling author Mike Lawson comes the most recent installment in the award-winning Joe DeMarco series.
Like a fixer for influential congressman John Mahoney in Washington, DC, Joe DeMarco has found himself in plenty of unexpected and dangerous circumstances. In House Rivals, DeMarco is used further out of his component than previously, sent to North Dakota to safeguard a separate but naïve twenty-two-year-old blogger that has put herself in harm’s way.
The young woman is Sarah Johnson, whose about House Rivals: A Joe DeMarco Thriller grandfather saved Mahoney’s life in Vietnam. For days gone by 2 yrs, Sarah continues to be on the relentless crusade against a billionaire essential oil tycoon that has profited handsomely from the natural gas increase in the Dakotas-and who she believes has been bribing small-time politicians and judges to maintain stuff in his favour. Though she’s no hard evidence against the person, Sarah has been assaulted and received death threats for her meddling. DeMarco, given his years of experience bending the guidelines in DC, suspects a middleman like himself is usually pulling strings for the tycoon. But simply because DeMarco tries to recognize his adversaries, the situation changes unexpectedly violent, and DeMarco finds himself inside a fight of wits against two ruthless problem solvers who’ll stop at nothing at all to win.
“This tenth Joe DeMarco political thriller tackles the murky world of state and local politics using the series’ hallmark mixture of danger and cynical wit…This is a solid thriller, both suspenseful and smart, much in the manner of the great Ross Thomas.”-Booklist
