Publisher Description

Kenneth Ewald has what it takes to win the presidency: the support of his party, a lovely wife, a dynamic campaign. What neither he nor any candidate needs is a corpse. He knows only one man capable of solving a crime, clearing his son, putting his campaign back on track and catching a killer-his best friend Mac Smith. Oddly enough, it was Mac and his dog Rufus who found the body in the first place.

Quotes

  • “With theatrical skill, Truman shifts her scenes. With each new change of lighting, you see different facets of character, different faces of villainy. In the end, nothing you assumed at the start hold true.”

    — Houston Post
  • “An exciting romp.”

    — Dallas Morning News
  • “Full of believable—if despicable—characters and is injected with a masterly dose of suspense.”

    — Cosmopolitan

    " An enjoyable, but slightly convoluted murder mystery set against the backdrop of a presidential campaign. I like the characters Mac Smith and Annabel Reed, but this one wasn't one of my favorites of the Capital Crimes series. "
