Well, I am down for any exciting political mystery and this concept sounded interesting leading me to buy the book. But, this is more of a drama foundation that sets things in motion for the next books to pick up rather than a mystery or suspense. A Seattle lady who was vexed with two party system decides to create a reality show the winner of which will inherit a vast sum of money and PR support to run a third party candidacy in 2020. The book is about the transformation of her life from Seattle to the Bay Area and how she kept her wits and her competition together till its first challenge. It is more of a drama than a mystery.
