Ninety percent of the federal laws, resolutions, and appropriations pass or fail in the U. S. Congress by a handful of votes. This means a small dedicated group of Congressmen, from both parties, in both Houses, joined in a secret society, could, by their patronage, influence, committee decisions, or floor votes, control the flow of America's monies. And by parceling the votes among its members, leave no footprint behind.
When Alexander Judd stumbles upon the possibility of collusion in these votes, and sets out to investigate it, he quickly finds himself kidnapped by a trash-talking Elfy Cane. Who is wanted for murder. Cut the guy's heart out. Then, linked to Elfy by association, Alex finds the police are now after him. What more could a slightly out-of-shape widower ask? Well, falling in love with her wasn't one of them. Nor was having Elfy end up in the clutches of the shadowy Church of the Dark Light, a secret coven meeting in the great building atop Jenkins Heights. Better known today as ... Capitol Hill.
