His crazed widow is in denial and recklessly loose-lipped. Texas House District 100 is again in turmoil, and the interests of the landed class against urban sprawl are at odds. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEnter John David Dothan (The Representative). The world's hippest legislator is back, but he is a changed man. Post-stroke Dothan dons an eccentric cane and is married to his former chief of staff, Tryphena Taylor. The two lovers reside peacefully tucked away in a country cottage with their rescued cat. But they are swimming against the tide. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCaught between the past and the future, the rural and the urban, the representative is trapped in a no-win situation both politically and emotionally. When a constituent brings to his attention a mysterious 'retention pond' things grow increasingly murky. The waters turn completely dark when Dothan learns his forbidden first love, former State Senator Rachael Logan has been hospitalized.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eArmed with only his cane and sidekick, Mason Dixon (The District Manager), who serves as his new Chief of Staff, Dothan sets aside the ambiguities of politics and love in search of clarity and righteousness. But the cost of doing the right thing might not just be his young marriage...but Tryphena's life. \u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Matt Minor\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0999762230\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780999762233\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Dead Tree\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/02\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 250\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.64lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.25w x 0.57d","brand":"Matt Minor","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48483851895039,"sku":"9780999762233","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c09c1f95-65f9-466f-bc7a-4f03ce3a2cfa.jpg?v=1778041001","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-water-lord-matt-minor-9780999762233","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
