THE TENTH DRAGON

Jack Rowan enters politics as an unknown furniture businessman. Twenty years later, he has become a mayor, governor, two-term president, kingmaker, and the center of a political network powerful enough to survive even after he leaves office. Around him stand nine economic empires, ruthless political parties, media networks, corrupt officials, activists, propagandists, digital armies, and Victor Hale—the rival who loses two presidential elections against Jack before eventually becoming his ally. When Jack helps Victor win the presidency with his own son, Gabriel Rowan, as Vice President, he believes he has secured his family’s future. Instead, power changes everything. Victor begins building a government of his own. Gabriel begins losing access. Jack’s old allies begin disappearing. The Nine Dragons choose new sides. And the former president slowly realizes that the man he helped place in the palace may no longer want him anywhere near it. No permanent friends. No permanent enemies. Only permanent interests. — Description from novelcodex.orgFull novel: THE TENTH DRAGON — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠
