Publisher's Synopsis
April Wells, a celebrated African-American memoirist and essayist, lands a writing assignment covering the presidential campaign of the presumptive Democratic nominee, William Waters, for a high-profile magazine. Ahead of the Democratic National Convention, Waters must also contend with persistent rumours that he has cheated on his wife with young male staffers. When a woman contacts her accusing Waters of sexual assault, April is torn: should she do her job and report this? Or should she sit on it, in case the damage to Waters' reputation could loose him the presidency?
