Here’s the set-up:

A STORY THAT PROVOKES, EDUCATES, AND ENTERTAINS

It’s November 2019, and another U.S. presidential election season approaches.

Senator Olivia Allen—brilliant and beautiful—signs onto the Democratic presidential ticket, unaware of powerful forces that seek either to control her or destroy her.

Her opponents are Frank Kenneth Stein, a billionaire who would rather be forthright than President, and Quentin Kirby, the power-hungry, Republican vice president. As the campaign advances toward an electrifying climax, their brutal maneuvers play out against a backdrop of national crises. Hyperinflation looms and bloody riots sweep the country.

For Olivia, however, the greatest perils lie in the corridors of Washington power, as she finds herself becoming a mere pawn in a deadly game of entrapment, blackmail, and assassination. Can she turn the tables—ensuring America’s survival as well as her own?
Reviews

“A very enjoyable story. An intricate and suspenseful plot. I never lost interest.”—Joseph Ducie, Cedar Sky Publishing

“Vividly rendered, flawed, and interesting characters. An engaging multilayered plot.”—Glenn Dallas, San Francisco Book Review

“A brilliantly plotted and consummately executed story of political ideas, intrigue, and a vision of what could be. This is the kind of writing, and Vinay Kolhatkar the kind of thinker and writer, that changes minds and ultimately cultures.”—Walter Donway, Founding Trustee, Atlas Society (a Washington DC based think-tank).

“This book is a fantastic read. Once I started reading it, I could not put it down. While the plot is detailed and credible, it makes for an easy read for a political novice. There are parts of the book that, had it been a movie, would have had you sitting at the edge of your seat.”—T. Thomas, columnist, Indus Age

About The Author

Vinay Kolhatkar has written screenplays for film and television and has extensive experience in the world of high finance. He has a Masters degree in finance (UNSW). He studied creative writing at the National Institute of Dramatic Art in Sydney. Later, he studied screenwriting at ScreenwritingU in LA and at the Story Department, Sydney.

After getting increasingly fed up with the inane banalities and rhetoric of political campaigns, he decided to write a satirical thriller exposing such practices in a fictional setting, using his knowledge of story structure, dialogue subtext, and page-turning pace which he learnt from film scriptwriting.

From a young age, he had a keen interest in U.S. politics. For his debut novel, he supplemented this knowledge and his screenwriting background with extensive research into the conduct of presidential politics in America. The result is a purely fictional story with a deeply authentic ring to it–a story that provokes, educates, and entertains, all at the same time.

Here's the set-up:
It's November 2019, and another U.S. presidential election season approaches.

Senator Olivia Allen—brilliant and beautiful—signs onto the Democratic presidential ticket, unaware of powerful forces that seek either to control her or destroy her.

Her opponents are Frank Kenneth Stein, a billionaire who would rather be forthright than President, and Quentin Kirby, the Republican vice president, whose only passion is personal power.

Their bruising rivalry unfolds against a backdrop of national crises. China dumps U.S. Treasury bonds. Iran threatens nuclear attack. Hyperinflation looms and bloody riots sweep the country.

But for Olivia Allen, the greatest perils lie in the corridors of Washington power, as she finds herself a mere pawn in a deadly game of entrapment, blackmail, and assassination.

Can she turn the tables—for the country she loves—to still have a future?
One Reviewer Notes:
This is a very plausible scenario and a fascinating read. I thoroughly enjoyed the characters and intricate plot and storyline. An interesting commentary on politics and the political games that are played. It kept me interested till the end. Vinay Kolhatkar has created a run-up to a Presidential Election with skill and I would recommend this book for sure. Entertaining !
