    The election is a massacre. The Liberal Party is in ruins. And Julian Dufresne—a sociopathic academic backed by dark money—is poised to seize the ashes.

    Shadow Minister Will Carter survived the bloodbath, but surviving isn't enough. As his husband Andrew races to disarm a Russian cyber-weapon in the shadows of Hong Kong, Will must play the longest game of his career—surviving Dufresne's rise, holding his party together, and protecting the family he's built.

    From the campaign trail to the backrooms of Hong Kong, the Carters are about to discover that the real war is only beginning.
