Description: Mike Ford was following his father into a life of crime, but chose, instead, to go straight and work his way through Harvard Law School. Now he's landed the ultimate job with the Davies Group, a powerful political consulting firm run by the charismatic Henry Davies. With money and privilege, he rubs shoulders with Washington's heavyweights. Mike believes that everything has finally come right. However, he's about to discover that power comes at a cost. Henry Davies is looking for a protege for a crucial deal that must go right - at any price. Mike soon learns that being on the side of the lawmakers doesn't mean your work is legal. And there's no place for a moral code when you're on the devil's payroll.
