Summary

'A revealing window into the le Carré-like layers of intrigue that develop when a celebrity politician who is married to another celebrity politician loses to yet another celebrity politician, and goes on to serve the politician who defeated her.' Washington Post

'Provides useful context and intelligent analysis . . . pumped full of colorful you-are-there details.' New York Times
