How to win an election:
1. Shake hands.
2. Kiss babies.
3. Travel through time.
Politics is more difficult than physics, said Albert Einstein. Now that we can time travel, this is no longer true.
All the State House gossips go abuzz when an influential senator forms an alliance with Rep. Frannie Upwood, the capital s most famous underachiever and favorite butt of jokes. Why his sudden interest in such a lightweight politician?
It s up to Lars Uxbridge, the senator s disloyal staffer, to find out, after he joins a network of political spies. What Lars discovers is a secret far beyond anything other state reps can muster. To get ahead in politics, Frannie s got something better than snappy slogans, wealthy donors, and door-to-door volunteers.
She s got a time machine.
Frannie shows that when you re armed with time travel, you re the star athlete in a game where the world is your playing field, you make your own rules, and you always beat the shot clock.
But as Frannie will learn, this game has opponents to contend with. Rivals who might not play fair. When the prizes are enormous power, money, and control of time itself, watch out for cheat moves and low blows
