Review # 1 was written on 2019-06-10 00:00:00 Donaldo Villalobos Erin Hartsock unexpectedly lands a job in the team of Rosemary White Marshall, who is running for the senate. As she become enamoured with the world of politics, she notices something isn't quite right. There have been a series of mysterious fires. It seems there might be something in the past that a member of Rosemary's team is willing to keep secret. This was an okay mystery, but a bit boring. Nothing really happens for the longest time. The focus is on Rosemary's campaign and the various day to day duties of her team in trying to win against an opponent who is in front and who has more money to spend on the campaign. Even though published in 1989, the book had a pleasing left-wing slant to it, with a bit of discussion of gender and racial politics. Erin could sometimes be frustrating. She keeps whinging about people being condescending to her, but if she stopped acting like a child, maybe they would! There isn't much else to say! Mostly boring and unremarkable, it's not one that you should go out of your way to track down!
