    About this ebook

    Omnibus containing the novel AN ELECTION OF PATRIOTS, the screenplay A CRIME OF INFLUENCE, and the radio play PIVOT, both adapted from the novel by the author, Andre Jute.

    It didn’t just happen that soundbite television came to trivialize policy.

    Someone willed it. A very surprising someone.

    With the best possible intentions. For the best possible reasons. In all sincerity.

    To save the Republic. To elect the best possible President.

    A crime of influence. Perpetrated by real people.

    Who paid a real price.

    This is their true story. In their own words.
