I enjoyed the book and thought it was well written. I would have given it 5 stars if it weren't for the sudden, and out of place (in my opinion), dropping of the F-Bomb, by the Congressman. It seemed so out of character and did nothing to enhance the story. At that point I would have backed away from him and he would have never been invited into my house. For me it showed latent anger and the possibility of an eruption that could turn violent. He hadn't talked that way throughout the book so that's what made it stand out and caused me to wonder.I'm not sure why authors feel that profanity is necessary to make a point or it in any way enhances a story. Up to that point the book, the dialogue, was working.  I'd just recommended it to a friend, prior to getting to the ending. Now I'm sorry I did. One word changed the story for me and the overall good opinion I had of the book. That's very disappointing.
