A fast-paced novel full of political intrigue, espionage, and romance, The Perfect Candidate spans multiple genres and continents, taking the reader inside the world of state secrets and intercultural relationships in a thrilling tale of power and ambition.
Former spy and New England aristocrat Stephen Edward James and his wife Nina Sharma are about to enter the race for a US Senate seat in Stephen's native Massachusetts. With his high-profile philanthropic endeavors, interracial marriage, and uncommonly principled stance, Stephen makes a compelling Republican candidate in the traditionally Democratic stronghold-despite his shadowy past.
Stephen's opponent-former congresswoman and popular professor Katherine Collins-hires a tracker, Dave Tyler, to dig into Stephen's past. As his tabloid curiosity turns into a personal dislike for the privileged candidate, Tyler is determined to go to any lengths necessary to discredit Stephen. His efforts rock the campaign, jeopardizing Stephen's marriage as well as pushing one of his young, closeted staffers to the breaking point.
But Stephen is not one to back down from a fight. He has powerful friends in his corner-setting off an ominous chain of events.
