Opis

Dr. Milton Stafford had nothing but love and support for his wife; charismatic, outspoken talk show host Meredith Nicholson, when she announced her intentions of running for President of the United States. If he had known what dark forces were at work against Meredith, their family and the country's survival, he might not have been so eager. Gerald Revo, The Commander in Chief, is just as popular. The man Meredith will ultimately face in the race, however, has a past filled with dark secrets. He's a ruthless Gulf War Veteran with a taste for blood, yet he's charmed the American voters with his tough talk and charisma. But he has an Achilles heel; he's afflicted with an illness, that baffles both science and government and only Meredith's husband Milton can develop the antidote to save him. Milton finds himself in the middle of a conspiracy that not only threatens the life of his family, but the existence of America as a free nation. Meredith shocks the country and wins the Democratic nomination. Three days before the November election, Milton puts his horrible plan into effect. In the turmoil that ensues, Gerald Revo dies of a mysterious medical condition and his chief advisor is horrifically maimed. Meredith Nicholson becomes the 44th President of the United States and Milton Stafford becomes the country's "First Gentleman."
