| book description |

""This is a very smart, very funny book"" - Locus ""Enthralling and subversive"" - SF Commentary ""An excellent piece of future-gazing"" - Amazon Reviewer A Dutch Cold War is in full swing. The US is a shadow of its former self - its infrastructure is failing, and nomadic tribes roam freely among the states, living by no rules but their own. Oscar Valpariso - always impeccably dressed - is only half human, but he's master political strategist to potentially the next president. If he can straighten out his love life, gain control of a high-tech scientific facility, and solve a worldwide crisis that only he's noticed, America should be ripe for the taking . . .
