    A window into the real politics of Washington

    Robert Ellis's first novel is a wide open window into the inner workings of the political machine wrapped around a taut tale of murder, double crosses, and sex. From the Capitol to the monuments to the slums, Ellis shines a light into every corner of the campaign machine. It's obvious from his narrative that Ellis has spent his time in the trenches and he brings a strong realism to every page. Toss in a hit man bent on self improvement with a destroyed candidate bent on revenge, mix well with a Senator's wife who will do anything to win and you have the basis for a great story of politics in our time. Everyone wants to move to the top. Forget Monica, there are far worse doings in Access to Power. Ellis doesn't miss a beat. You'll look at political campaigns in a whole new light after reading this.

    Exciting poliitcal thriller

    There is three weeks to go in the Virginia race for the US Senate when the Lou Kay camp begins to attack their opponent¿s wealth and residence. Frank Miles knows that his candidate Mel Merdock is in trouble and seems on the verge of losing. He needs a new strategy and not just one that tries to counter the Kay attack, which is quite accurate.

    However, Frank, whose reputation is to do anything including destroy a life with a lie (just ask Ozzie Olson) has a new problem. Apparently, a teen with a record broke into his office and murdered Frank¿s partner, who in turn killed his slayer. Frank sees inconsistencies with the police description of the crime. He begins his own investigation, following a trail of corpses that will show how far candidates will go to become elected.

    Does the premise behind ACCESS TO POWER seem implausible? At first perhaps yes, but when one considers some of the incidents in real life elections in other areas, perhaps this fast-paced story line could happen. This tale works because Frank seems genuine as he takes one step leading to several others before he realizes his life is in jeopardy. Though why Frank became a target of the killer is not clear, Robert Ellis has written a novel that depicts the potential extremes in today¿s election system. More than just John McCain will enjoy this interesting novel.
