Joe DeMarco

review 1: Joe DeMarco works for the Speaker of the House, John Mahoney, except one will never find his name on any org chart. Joe is Mahoney's fixer. An attempted bombing of the Baltimore Harbor Tunnel morphs into a plane shot down while flying into the White House and, suddenly, the ambitious junior senator from Virginia is proposing a massive anti-Muslim terrorism bill. Soon, DeMarco finds himself engulfed with terrorists, corrupt politicians, the mob and hillbilly meth dealers. This is timely political intrigue told with a leavening of humor, full of suspense. If you like political conspiracies, this is a series with reading.
review 2: This is the third book in the series and the third I read (for a change I started a series at the beginning rather than in the middle)... more and the characters are still keeping my interest. Even if this were the first book you pick up, there is enough background so that you don't feel lost about the characters.In addition to a compelling plot (Who know that life working for Congress could be so exciting!?) , the book had its humorous moments (both dark and light), and mixes in some social commentary as well. If you like David Baldacci, this series is worth a try. less
