In this follow-up to his bestselling debut, Jim Moore delivers a thriller that combines a fast-action story with a lesson about the US Constitution. What if, just days after the national election, the man who would be president and his chosen running mate are dead? Who becomes president and how is that person chosen? Our founding fathers possessed keen insight for solving such contingencies, a fact made clear in this political thriller by the author of Ride the Jawbone.
Moore throws in four would-be kingmakers, an unscrupulous, power-hungry egomaniac who will stop at nothing to become president, and an earnest rancher/lawyer from Montana, Bobby Hobaugh, who becomes a pawn in an election scheme. It all adds up to an unforgettable story that will change the way you look at our process for choosing those who would lead us.

Biographie de Jim Moore

Jim Moore came from a home where reading was encouraged. His parents both enjoyed books so the house was filled with reading material, which he took advantage of from a young age. Along the highway from his family ranch near Two Dot, Montana to Bozeman, the old Jawbone road bed is visible at places. In passing by, it often occurred to him that a good yarn could be wrapped around the story of the railroad.
About twelve years ago, he decided to see if he could write it. Thus came into being Ride the Jawbone. Other published titles by Jim Moore include: Election Day, The Body on the Floor of the Rotunda, and The Whole Nine Yarn, a compilation of nine of his short stories, and The Jenny. Another legal thriller, 8 Seconds, is slated for publication in 2017. Jim Moore has spent his life as a cattle rancher and a lawyer.
He was raised and spent most of his life on the Moore ranch near Two Dot, Montana. His father brought a World War I airplane-a Curtis JN4 Jenny-to the family ranch in 1920 and barnstormed the state. Those experiences, as told to his son, seemed a proper basis for a legal murder mystery. An attractive young woman as the one with the flying machine made for a better yarn. Now retired, Jim lives quietly with his wife, Kay, on their farm south of Bozeman, Montana.
He continues to write legal murder mysteries.
