DRIVEN
2022 Winner: CIPA EVVY Book Silver Award in LGBTQ Fiction
In this first of the Rita Mars series, she loses an old friend to what appears to be suicide. She’s convinced he was murdered to cover unethical maneuvers and save reputations in the abyss that is Congress. Back stabbings inside the beltway sometimes extend beyond metaphorical.
She’s going to butt heads with the local good ole boy authorities and navigate the deliberately stoked smoke screens of the duly elected, but she is never going to give up.
