Rushmore “Mac” McKenzie has a lot of old girlfriends, but only one went
on to marry the current governor of the state of Minnesota. And only one
 is calling him with a desperate request to meet in secret. First Lady
Lindsay Barrett is carrying an anonymous e-mail that contains the
makings of an ugly rumor about her husband, the man about to run for
higher office---perhaps even the highest office. Someone says they have
evidence that Jack Barrett killed his high school sweetheart. Lindsay
says it's an outright lie, but the truth lies buried decades in the past
 in the small town where the governor grew up.<br>Of course, Mac, who's
richer than he needs to be and always has plenty of time on his hands,
is in the business of handling such matters for his friends. So he packs
 up and drives straight into the governor's past with the brilliantly
conceived plan to poke around and see if he can stir up a little
information. He's soon got goons of all sorts poking him back, including
 a nasty little group of political movers and shakers who aren't above
kidnapping and murder to protect their interests. It's clear that his
little plan has stirred up nothing but trouble. <br>With no choice but
to stick to it, he continues shifting through a complex web of
interlocking secrets and lies, some decades old and some rooted
violently in the present day. It's up to Mac to sort truth from untruth before a vicious rumor becomes a political nightmare--or worse, before
 the “outright lie” is proved a solid, irrefutable fact.
