The Candidate
By Lis Wiehl (October 2016)
Seemingly impeccable war hero Mike Ortiz is the putative POTUS with dazzling and doting wife Celeste by his side. However, his picture-perfect campaign makes reporter Erica Sparks suspicious, and she is determined to uncover the truth behind the power couple. Readers won’t be able to put down this fast-paced work of fiction, the second in The Newsmakers series, co-penned by Fox News contributor and Larchmont resident Lis Wiehl and Sebastian Stuart. Together, they bring this political page-turner to life with thought-provoking prose and vivid literary detail. The Candidate is the perfect nominee for the 2016 election cycle, serving up a stirring diversion from otherwise pompous political punditry.
