A senator's death sends shock waves through Washington, DC, in this mystery by the New York Times–bestselling author and presidential daughter. Senator Cale Caldwell and his blue-blooded wife maintained a far-reaching and powerful grip on Capitol Hill society, but not powerful enough to save him from foul play. The influential senator's life is cut short in brutal fashion at a glamorous reception held in his honor. It happens just two short years after tragedy struck the Caldwell family in the form of the unsolved murder of his niece, but when attorney Lydia James suggests a connection, she's shut down, and fast. Who stands to benefit from the Caldwells' tragedies, and James' silence-the senator's political rivals, the media, or perhaps even the family's closest allies?
"Murder on Capitol Hill proves that the author is much more than a one-term mystery writer... all the insider's knowledge and gossip that made Murder in the White House so captivating."
Booklist
"Truman has settled firmly into a career of writing murder mysteries, all evoking brilliantly the Washington she knows so well."
