Synopsis

Bestselling author Stephen L. Carter delivers a gripping political thriller set against the backdrop of the Nixon White House, Vietnam, and Watergate.

Philmont Castle has it all: wealth, respect, and connections. So he's the last person you'd expect to fall prey to a murderer, but when his body is found on the grounds of a Harlem mansion, the young writer Eddie Wesley, along with the woman he loves, Aurelia Treene, are pulled into a twentyyear search for the truth. The disappearance of Eddie's sister June makes their investigation even more troubling. As Eddie and Aurelia uncover layer upon layer of intrigue, their odyssey takes them from the wealthy drawing rooms of New York through the shady corners of radical politics to the Oval Office and Nixon himself.
