Description
Ninety percent of the federal laws, resolutions, and appropriations pass or fail by a handful of votes. This means a small dedicated group of Congressmen, from both parties, in both Houses, joined in a secret society, could, by their patronage, influence, committee decisions, or floor votes, control the flow of America's monies. And by parceling the votes among its members, leave no footprint behind. When Alexander Judd stumbles upon the possibility of such a society, and sets out to investigate it, he quickly finds himself staring into the barrel of a gun locked in the hands of a naked woman. The trash-talking Elfy Cane. Who is wanted for murder. Cut the guy's heart out. Then Elfy kidnaps him. And linked to her by association, Alex now finds the police are after him. What more could a slightly out-of-shape widower ask? Well, falling in love with the lady certainly wasn't one of them. Nor was having Elfy end up in the clutches of a shadowy Church of the Dark Light, a secret coven meeting in the bowels of that great building atop Jenkins Heights. Better known today... as Capitol Hill.
