Another good one from Cooper.This one starts with Santos Lockwood. He was part of the previous administrations staff. When the POTUS resigned suddenly, Lockwood was out of a job.Lockwood is in Mexico meeting and old friend Antonio McKnight a Congressman from Florida.The only reason McKnights a Rep is because Lockwood helped him get through school.The friendship has turned into more of a master slave scenario with Lockwood as the slave.Lockwood would very much like to get away from McKnight but doesn't see how. McNight had been to his home many times as he was growing up. Lockwood's Mother treated him like one of her own and now McKnight has turned into a monster.McKnight has an agenda which includes him as the next POTUS. To do that he has to get Zimmer out of office and by hook or by crook thats what he is going to do. He starts with Milton Southgate the speaker of the Senate.Southgate is old school and listens to what McNight has to say. He ponders on what he's been told and then sends some of his people to check it out.Meanwhile President Zimmer has requested Travis Haden the CEO of SSI and Marge Haines the attorney for SSI come to DC. He wants to speak with both of them. He wants them both to come work for him. Travis as his Chief of Staff and Marge as part of his administration.Cal Stokes the owner of SSI is unaware of Zimmer's needs and is doing his best to take care of the paperwork Travis has left him. Paperwork just isn't his thing. In fact he hates it and never could figure out how his Dad handled it. Cal would rather be out in the field than stuck doing paperwork. Once he finds out that Travis will be the Chief of Staff for the POTUS he's fit to be tied. No way does Cal want to be stuck with all this damned paperwork.So begins one damned fine read.This one has Cal, SSI, Travis, the POTUS, Senator Southgate, the former POTUS, Antonio McNight, the Secretary of State another man with his own agenda, a billionaire with a problem, murder, attempted murder and Cal Stokes and his boys figuring it all out.Just one fine read and well worth those five Stars.
