Fire in the Belly of the Beast (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798325634543)

"Now that no Democratic Party existed at the national level, the big money was scrambling to maintain influence." So begins Fire in the Belly of the Beast. Both national parties have collapsed under the weight of voter disgust. Desperate members of Congress organize into new parties.

But, as a cliché-ridden journalist might put it, there's still fire in the belly of the beast, a fire that might be quenched by taking down the President of the United States. Senator Sheffield Belmond conspires to become the front-runner for the presidential nomination. Army Second Lieutenant Rek Park-Raak tries to use his position in the Pentagon to undercut yet another repulsive President. Reporter Elle Crafton digs for a career-boosting scoop. Jan Staffort, the trans-woman Speaker of the House, schemes to advance her ambitions as party leader. Through D.C., Austin, Beverly Hills, and Silicon Valley, they strive hilariously against the obstacles of delusion, love, and decency.
