Agenda
POLITICS. CORRUPTION. MURDER. Harry, too, was anything but trustworthy, a trait his son dutifully carried with a certain amount of pride. When a young lady—Harry called her a ‘gold-digging tart’—accused his son of fatherhood shortly after Halloween two decades prior, only a select few within the Stanton social circle had any idea of such a false atrocity. All rumors and gossip were quashed, of course, by the heavyweight politico no one chose to confront. Not only that, no one had the guts to call Harry Stanton exactly what he was . . . A bald-faced liar. When Colbie takes in upon herself to investigate a case that doesn’t officially exist, its trajectory catapults her into a world of politics, corruption, and murder. While the spirit apparition of her best friend points her in the right direction, it’s up to Colbie to interpret the clues given in sign language. Pressed to honor her friend’s spiritual presence, she sets out to decode the messages, setting in motion an investigation that could change the country forever.
