Although TurnAround is a tale unto itself, it continues the political saga that began in Turnover, when certain parties showed just how far they'd go to achieve their goals in a high-stakes presidential election. In TurnAround, the results are in, but the corruption and greed are far from over. As President Averell Harriman Williams embarks on his second term in the nation's most powerful office, this captivating political thriller once again raises the question: Can we truly trust the integrity of our voting system?
As of December 2012, many might say yes. But to a few interested parties, the numbers just aren't adding up. Among those questioning souls are newlywed investigators Paul Gladston and Mare Burdette, who emerge from a quiet, Amish life off the grid to work for former employer Pete Clancy and his influential Washington friends.
While President Williams struggles to protect the secret that could mean his very undoing, Vice President Joseph Morrison keeps more insidious truths under wraps-but is given reason to suspect his plans may not unfold as he had originally hoped.
Filled with newsworthy events and scandals ripped straight from the headlines, TurnAround is a fast-paced and intriguing look at the workings of the wild world of politics-and what happens when greed and ambition meet murder, mayhem, and media bias.
