The Frankenstein Candidate

A story that provokes, educates, and entertains, all at the same time

It's November 2019, and another U.S. presidential election season approaches.

Senator Olivia Allen—brilliant and beautiful—signs onto the Democratic presidential ticket, unaware of powerful forces that seek either to control her or destroy her.

Her opponents are Frank Kenneth Stein, a billionaire who would rather be forthright than President, and Quentin Kirby, the power-hungry Republican vice president.

As the campaign advances toward an electrifying climax, their brutal maneuvers play out against a backdrop of national crises. Hyperinflation looms and bloody riots sweep the country.

But for Olivia, however, the greatest perils lie in the corridors of Washington power, as she finds herself a mere pawn in a deadly game of entrapment, blackmail, and assassination.

Can she turn the tables—ensuring America's survival as well as her own?
