The next book in the Linda Baldwin series features many of the characters from the first along with a cast of new characters. Linda is drawn into the no-man’s-land of a high stakes US Senate campaign and finds her career, her life and the values she holds dear beaded in the cross-hairs of the warring factions. As the political calendar marches toward election day, she races to uncover the facts, mining the fool’s gold of political truth at the risk of unearthing a dirty secret about herself. Holding the fate of an election and her career in hand, she must decide how far she is willing to go to protect her life, her career and reputation. She must choose between two sets of lies, half-truths, and distortions; between two candidates who view her as little more than an expendable pawn. Ultimately, she must decide if a career is worth sacrificing her black and white ideals about truth to the thin gray lines that define the boundaries of the world she inhabits.

Expected completion: early 2012.
