Chronicle As Books Political Suicide

Will Travis, an investigator who specializes in small-time jobs like looking into employee theft at hotels and bars, falls into a much bigger case when he unwittingly foils a murder attempt on a politician's daughter. Sitting in a hotel bar he sees a man drop something into a woman's drink, then watches as she begins to lose consciousness. Unable to sit by and watch her in peril, he comes to her rescue only to nearly get killed himself by a hitman out to get her.

The woman, Claire Harrington, tells a farfetched but believable story, given what they've just escaped: She's in danger because she believes her father's death--ruled a suicide by the police--was actually murder. What's more, she believes that one of the candidates in the upcoming presidential election was behind it.

Will gets drawn further and further into this dangerous situation, caught between wanting to go to the authorities, whom Claire doesn't trust, and wanting to help her himself. When events begin to spiral out of control, he knows there's no way out until they find the truth, wherever it takes them. Political Suicide is another gripping, edge-of-your-seat thriller from Alan Russell, one of the most ingenious suspense writers working today.

POLITICAL SUICIDE VGAlan Russell StandalonePolitical Suicide features private investigator Will Travis, a different kind of "hotel detective". With his near photographic memory, Travis evaluates restaurants and hotels, reporting on service issues and employee theft or neglect to his clients. During one of these evaluations he witnesses a man slipping something into his woman companion's drink. Travis rescues the woman, Claire Harrington, inserting himself into a twisted plot of suicide/murder

Political Suicide 2019 updated edition: My first Alan Russell book was Burning Man and I became a fan after only a few pages, since then I have read everything I could get hold of in e-format, unfortunately several of his earlier books were not available this side of the pond so I was delighted when the two Hotel Detective novels became available last year, and this year the two Stuart Winter books were released followed soon after by Political Suicide.I love ARs writing style and the way you

Thoroughly enjoyed - fast paced, several surprise twists, a good sense of humor, low level of maudlin... plus, I think this guy gets an award for Most Creative Use of Teeth...

Not My FavoriteMaybe Im just not in the mood for politics in this day and age. I like the spotter intrigue more than the plot of the story. I would much rather read St. Nick for the fourth time.

When a book starts out with the hero reciting General MacArthurs farewell to West Point, you really dont know what else to expect. The book then jumpsahead more than a decade to the present day where Will Travis, having been ousted from the military academy and the career path his family had long followed, is now working as an investigator in his own small agency. Will has a gift for memory and for being very observant, which works well in his role as a sort of mystery shopper/patron for hire.

Good read. Contains a lot of political junkie stuff. Russell weaves history, politics and mayhem into a creative web which does not unravel until the final pages.
