The Coyotes of Carthage - by Steven Wright (Paperback)

The Coyotes of Carthage is a gripping political thriller that will keep you on the edge of your seat from start to finish.

With its biting exploration of American politics, this debut novel introduces a major new voice in the world of political thrillers.

Follow Dre Ross, a successful political consultant with a reputation for using aggressive tactics, as he is sent to a small South Carolina town to run a dark money campaign for his corporate clients.

Despite his success, Dre's boss exiles him to this rural town with $250,000 of dark money to manipulate the locals into selling their pristine public land to the highest bidder.

As lines are crossed and lives ruined, Dre's increasingly cutthroat campaign threatens the very soul of Carthage County and perhaps the last remnants of his own humanity.

With a piercing portrait of our fragile democracy and one man's unraveling, The Coyotes of Carthage is a must-read for anyone interested in the American experiment in action.
