Book Overview

Heidi Scherzinger is just a typical working girl in Chicago in 1972. Well, maybe not so typical. In fact, she's running Chicago's most successful independent call girl outfit when she's summoned to meet with Sonny Battaglia, the country's most powerful Mob boss.

The other local call girl agencies are complaining about her success, so Sonny offers her a deal: either she gets whacked, or she relocates to Washington, D.C., where she'll be working for the "Agency" under the control of the creepy Sidney Gottshalk, the resident blackmail specialist.

The Agency wants blackmail material on all the horny Democrats flooding the Capitol in the run-up to the presidential election, trying to defeat President Nicholas Dixon as he runs for a second term.

The always efficient Heidi quickly sets up a first-class operation, aided by the quietly competent Milton Greenbaum. What follows is a Florence Gump-style adventure through a 1970s Washington, D.C., that might be just a little different than the version you read about in your history books.

About Kent Heckenlively

Kevin Shipp, former CIA officer and antiterrorism expert, held several high-level positions in the CIA. He was assigned as a protective agent for the director of Central Intelligence, a counterespionage investigator searching for moles inside the CIA, a Counter Terrorism Center operations officer, an internal security investigator, Chief of Training for the CIA federal police force, supervisor of high-risk asset protective operations, and polygraph examiner. Mr. Shipp functioned as program manager for the Department of State, Diplomatic Security, Anti-Terrorism Assistance global police training program. He is the recipient of two CIA Meritorious Unit Citations, three Exceptional Performance Awards, and a Medallion for overseas operations. He is the author of From the Company of Shadows: CIA Operations and the War on Terrorism. Mr. Shipp has been a regular guest on the American Heroes Channel as an intelligence and terrorism expert and has been the subject of numerous radio interviews and newspaper articles. A brush with a terminal illness when he was a young man and a miraculous recovery made him fearless of death and danger. This served him well in his CIA career and ultimately in publicly standing up to CIA corruption. Kent Heckenlivey, JD, is an attorney, science teacher, and New York Times bestselling author. Radio host Dennis Prager has praised Heckenlively as "a voice of moral courage and clarity." His books have sold more than a half million copies and have been translated into several languages. He is quickly gaining a reputation as one of the most fearless corruption fighters of our time.
