In reply to the discussion: What Fiction are you reading this week, June 2, 2024 [View all]hermetic
(9,053 posts)24. You are most welcome.
        Bit of a spoiler alert: your question will not actually be answered, as such. You'll just come to realize that what happened is the Democrats did not win. The bad guys did. And this is obviously what it will be like. Scary. So, this book is a warning. But it is also a tale of bravery and perseverance. Which we're gonna need. 
Did you know that Lief used to be a reporter for NPR? That might make his political sensibilities more clear. Our future is really on the line these days. And he knows it.
