At once a revealing look at human nature at the highest levels of power and an intimate portrayal of a sometimes rocky personal journey, it breaks all the rules. Smith doesn’t pretend to be perfect—she owns the controversial choices that landed her on the cover of tabloids, as well as the unorthodox ones that have paid off and defined her successful career.

Publisher's Summary
Politics. Scandals. Corruption. Murder? What would happen if the Democrats and GOP disappeared? Two-time Congressional Chief of Staff Eric Bohl envisions the fallout in the first book of this gripping new series.
The Republican and Democratic Parties have collapsed. Capitol Hill is in chaos. The economy is in free fall. Someone must step up and take charge.
Anna Rothwell is the brilliant young chief of staff to Willis Montgomery, a senior member of Congress. She has always dreamed of holding a position of power. When the country's future is at stake, Montgomery announces his candidacy for Speaker of the House, giving Anna her chance.
Anna trusts no one in the Capitol's backstabbing, poisonous environment. As the speaker election grows near, other candidates suffer suspicious personal tragedies, questionable ethics charges, and possible framing for felonies.
In the end, Anna must decide: Should she fulfill her life’s ambition, or will she pursue the truth, wherever it might lead?
This intense novel has been compared to House of Cards and Designated Survivor for its real-life “what-if” style. Fans of Tom Clancy, David Baldacci, Brad Thor, Vince Flynn, C.G. Cooper, and Charlie Lovett will love Fractured Republic.

Outstanding Narration
I bought this book because I am a big fan of the narrator, Lauren Pedersen. I was not disappointed. Her performance was perfect in every way, especially when switching voices ever so subtly. I always knew who was speaking. The story turned out to be good, which was a surprise, and the writing was good. But the narration was beautifully, masterfully presented.

More than any other presidency, Barack Obama's eight years in the White House were defined by young people - 20-somethings who didn't have much experience in politics (or anything else, for that matter) yet suddenly found themselves in the most high-stakes office building on earth. David Litt was one of those 20-somethings. After graduating from college in 2008, he went straight to the Obama campaign. In 2011 he became one of the youngest White House speechwriters in history.

Lis Smith isn’t your average political strategist, and Any Given Tuesday isn’t your typical political memoir. At once a revealing look at human nature at the highest levels of power and an intimate portrayal of a sometimes rocky personal journey, it breaks all the rules. Smith doesn’t pretend to be perfect—she owns the controversial choices that landed her on the cover of tabloids, as well as the unorthodox ones that have paid off and defined her successful career.
