By Chun-Chan Yeh and Allan Baillie

A NEW NOVEL BY THE AUTHOR OF ACHILLES: A LOVE STORY AMERICAN REVOLUTION: A Gay Novel (Keywords: Novel, Gay, American, President) Is America ready for a Gay President? Some powerful people don't think so and will do anything to prevent it. A murder at the New York City gay Black Party seems destined to become front-page poiltical news, especially since the victim is an aide to front-running presidential candidate Bradley Wright. But when investigative reporter Philip Kristopher takes the story to his network chief, he is told to forget it. When the story appears to be totally erased from the media, not only Philip, but Randy Asher and Tim Haley, leaders of the National Diversity Coalition, suspect a cover-up. Then Kristopher is hired by the very men who engineered the cover up; men whose power extends to the highest reaches of the nation and whose purpose is to make sure Bradley Wright is elected President no matter what might be discovered about his connection with the murdered man. Philip finds that he is playing a double game as both hunter and hunted, while his path leads from the board-rooms of New York to the door of the White House itself. On the way, he encounters those behind the scenes who make things happen and who don't care what it costs or whom it hurts. He also discovers the most important person: himself. This compelling novel is about America's three great obsessions: Power, Money, and Sex.
