This is a story about a woman who runs for President of the United States. It involves international intrigue, alliances with Canada, a contest with the sitting President over whether to enter into a skirmish in an Eastern European country, and a former lover who ends up running against her. There is time spent in New York State on the campaign trail, debates with political rivals, a conflict against the possiblilty of an Arab alliance with a Central American country, dealing with oil exploitation in the Yukon, interplay with the campaign commitee, and encounters with the press, as well as an attempt on her life. The plot is high concept with dense plotting, but with light moments such as sexual interludes and one slapstick party scene involving a prime minister, a couple of senators, and a reporter. The writing is in the tradition of a carefully detailed plot, drawn out sparingly in a sensitive internal monologue, with a compelling love story and a personal encounter with the abortion issue.
