When Jerzy Schroeder, a shadowy gray-market hustler and aspiring crony capitalist, is murdered while Josie Kendall is hitting him up for a million dollars to help him cash in on alternative-energy funding, the police suspect her of adultery and her husband, Rafe, of homicide. Josie, who works for Majority Values Coalition, an ´´activist fundraising organization´´, is a new but passionate Washington, DC player. Rafe, long a Washington insider, is passionate about Josie and about supporting her learning curve on how Washington works. For Josie and Rafe, this isn´t a murder investigation but a political damage-control problem. They´ll need a full arsenal, since, as one capital insider points out, ´´A damage control strategy that hasn´t succeeded within 30 days has failed.´´ They attack the issue with an array of finely tuned skills: strategic leaks, manipulation of the media, judicious use of inside information, and a flexible attitude toward the truth - plus the assistance of Josie´s uncle Darius, a veteran spin doctor with surprising connections who is, luckily, out on parole. Along the way Josie will have to decide whether there are ethical lines that even she won´t cross. In this House of Cards scenario, determining who actually murdered Schroeder is a low-priority problem, but Josie manages to do that as well. It´s all in a day´s - or, rather, 30 days´ - work. 1.
