Publisher's summary

What would happen if the President of the United States and the Vice President decided to run for the Oval Office… Against each other? Vice President Scott Maxwell is a decent, honest man with no skeletons in his closet, but is fed up with corrupt President Gordon Kirk. He decides to run for the Presidency against the incumbent, and sets in motion a series of events that will change his life and steal part of his soul. Maxwell finds this campaign requires media manipulation and dirty tricks that pull out all the stops, while learning that power, money and sex are interchangeable in American politics. Success usually comes with a price, but is Maxwell willing to pay it? And will it cost him the woman he loves? Meanwhile, reporter Jillian Turner sells her soul to save her career, then finds herself intoxicated with the man running for the White House and caught in a network plot to control the election. The Race is a look at the aphrodisiac known as political power, the media’s role in politics, and one man’s internal battle between good and evil.
