Totally absorbing account of the (fictional) games played in Washington, DC. Enjoyable and unexpected read for the concept and resultant twists and turns in plot.

This was a great thriller. I had a hard time putting it down. From a very surprising twist early in the book, right up until the end, I was so engrossed in the plot I would worry for the safety of the protagonists. It is well-written and, I thought, carried the action seamlessly throughout a sometimes complex (in a good way) narrative. The book does a good job of weaving interesting facts about life in Congress (and Washington) with a good science mystery and a lot of close calls. If you enjoy thrillers, you will enjoy this one.

Synopsis-Matthew Mercer and Harris Sandler are playing a mysterious game. It's a game almost no one know about, not their friends, not ther coworkers and certainly not their bosses who are some of the most powerful sentors and congressmen on Capitol Hill.
