Pulling Strings

by Christopher Clark

When the popular owner of the Baltimore Orioles is murdered, the repercussions reach nearby Washington D.C., where the 2016 presidential race is in full swing.
Senator Sara Clancy must choose sides in a battle for the Democratic nomination fuelled by sabotage and dirty tricks. Trusting no one, she faces a decision that could influence the outcome of the election…and much more.
Nothing is as it seems in this taut mystery/thriller that mixes murder, politics, baseball and sex – not necessarily in that order.

About the author

I am an author and freelance journalist in London, Ontario, Canada.

When I'm not writing or reading, I play as much tennis as possible. I also play drums.

My first novel, Pulling Strings, is a mystery/thriller about murder, politics, baseball and sex -- not necessarily in that order. The story starts with the murder of the popular owner of the Baltimore Orioles, which affects the 2016 presidential race, well underway in neighboring Washington D.C.
