The Corrupt Republic - Tapa blanda

Reseña del editor

Shady dealings, government corruption, and the ruthless pursuit of money and power: It's politics as usual in The Corrupt Republic, the explosive new political thriller by Andrew Buck.Inspired by Americans' growing distrust of Wall Street and Washington, The Corrupt Republic tells the all-too-believable story of one man's entry into the upper echelons of power and politics, the shocking corruption he uncovers and the lengths to which those with the most to lose will go to keep him from talking.The book's release is timely, given America's disillusionment -- Democrats, Republicans and Independents alike -- with politicians and disgust with the financial crisis. The novel's vision drew from the nation's political divisions and the despair people felt in the face of obvious political corruption, crippling financial bailouts, "tea party" revolts, record deficit spending, a deep recession and the desire for meaningful change in Washington.Ultimately, the novel also shines a light into that darkness by introducing a main character that reflects the best of America and exemplifies the nation's ethical core and values. Readers will walk away from The Corrupt Republic with a new resolve against the marriage of business and politics and renewed hope for the future of the country.Buck is not the likely choice to write a page-turner about dirty dealings in Washington, but as he watched the rapidly changing political and financial landscape of America, he couldn't shake the idea for The Corrupt Republic. The novel quickly took shape."Because of our current political and economic situation, and the current American mood, The Corrupt Republic lays the foundation for a compelling dialogue on the future direction of our country," said Buck. "It provides a present-day perspective to help readers understand how critical political and financial decisions affect our nation's future."
