Murder, Terror and Treason is the heading on the back of this book... I must admit I was a little bit put off by the "Muslim protege is accessed of syphoning...." part of the blurb, but all I can say is ignore that - it's an interesting series of twists of turns and there's no stigmatising going on.
From the Blurb:
Isabel Diaz is set to be the first woman to win the White House.
But her chances plummet when a Muslim protege is accused of syphoning funds to terrorists and, seemingly unrelated, an Australian software wiz is tossed off a London skyscraper.
Then, when a TV journalist digs up a dark secret from Isabel's past, her presidental hopes shatter.
Opening Lines:
For once, Hillary Clinton and Sarah Palin are in synch, privately spitting their venom at the cloying barrage of TV images that show a beaming Isabel Diaz sprinkling her pixie dust. Even their own supporters, in a distressing groundswell these two political foes once craved for themselves, are leaping to their feet across the country, punching the air and chanting "Bel... Bel... Isa-bel."
