The 500
Matthew Quirk
Mike Ford is a former con artist who's been plucked from his Harvard Law School classroom to be an associate at The Davies Group, Washington's most high-powered and well-respected strategic consulting firm. Their specialty: pulling strings and peddling influence for the five hundred most powerful people inside the Beltway, the men and women who really run Washington -- and by extension the country, and the world.
The namesake of the firm, Henry Davies, knows everyone who matters; more importantly, he knows their secrets. Davies' experience goes back 40 years -- he worked for Lyndon Johnson, jumped shipped to Nixon, then put out his own shingle as the Hill's most cut-throat and expensive fixer. Now he's looking for a protégé to tackle his most high-stakes deal yet, and Mike fits the bill.
Quickly pulled into a seductive, dangerous web of power and corruption, Mike struggles to find his way out. But how do you save your soul when you've made a deal with the devil?

Değerlendirmeler
film olarak izlemenin de zevkli olacağı bir poltika aksiyon ve entrika kitabı. çeviri dili de çok akıcı. sıcak yaz günleri için ideal...
Yazarın anlatımını beğendim. Sarkastik bir dili var. Benzetmeleriyle, tiye almasıyla, verdiği detaylarla keyif veriyor. Roman yavaş başlasa da son 100 sayfada çok hızlanıyor. Sonunu baştan bilmek bence biraz dezavantaj ama yine de heyecanla okudum. Son bölümlerde olayı biraz abartmış gibi geldi. Biraz da tesadüfe bak filan dedim ama yine de güzeldi.
