As I reach out, my hands meet cold hard stone, and I realise in one single terrifying moment that I'm back where it all started - trapped at the bottom of the well where my best friend Amy's body was found fifteen years ago.   My husband Martin warned me not to come back here. Westhaven turned its back on me a long time ago, after my hit true crime documentary freed Amy's murderer and made our small town infamous. But when another teenager turned up dead, I knew I couldn't stay away...     Did I get too close to the truth? Is that why my captor put me down here? But the way they're taunting me from the top of the well feels too personal. They say if I want to live, I have to tell the truth.If I want to hold my little girl again, I have to figure out who put me down here and what secret they claim I'm keeping. But how long until I have only one last breath?

  A contested presidential election leads to a national crisis in this “masterful political thriller . . . loaded with intrigue and counter-intrigue” (Richard Condon, author of The Manchurian Candidate). At the dawn of the twenty-first century, the CIA has been disbanded and a secret society has taken hold of powerful positions across Washington. After a long and contentious campaign, President Bedford Lockwood is celebrating his reelection. But the revelry is cut short when it’s discovered that his over-zealous aides may have tampered with the vote. On the eve of the Inauguration, Lockwood’s rival—the archconservative Franklin Mallory—presents evidence of fraud. When Lockwood refuses to take the oath of office, it sets in motion a series of events that may destroy him, his party, and the Constitution. From this catastrophic crisis, acclaimed author and former Washington journalist Charles McCarry weaves a smart, tense, and eerily prescient political thriller.“Not only exceptionally suspenseful but also unnervingly realistic….gripping and intricate.” —The Washington Post
