The Republican National Convention is moved to Baltimore at the last minute because of riots in Seattle. Delegates to the convention, a local newspaper writer, a hooker, several assassins and political operatives become involved in a web of power, passion and deceit. A retired general seeking the presidential nomination becomes the object and focus of attention for those wanting him and those wanting to destroy him. Each character falls under the shadows of death and destruction. Love, ambition, self-interest, promotion and hunger for money and power all come into play. Some live, some die, some win, some lose and some move on to a new life . . . or afterlife.

Unconventional Assassination: Baltimore-politics, Passion and Power
DNF at 48% The one star reflects the fact that I'm not finishing this because the author is making extremely heavy-handed attempts to manipulate the reader's emotions.
The book is about an Iraqi citizen and his perspective of the American invasion of Iraq. I won't argue that some awful things must have happened because of that invasion but the writer is using things like a mentally ill child being shot down at a check point and a missile falling on a wedding party to show that terrible things happened. The problem that I have is that these are the kinds of things that nobody can look at and say that it isn't tragic. What about the innocents that were killed that weren't so lily white? The author is slapping you into agreeing with him instead of slowly drawing you in with good writing and seducing you into agreeing and seeing that POV.
Clumsy, manipulative writing that caused me to DNF - 1 star.
