In this volume, two candidates are facing off in the presidential election, and in all the media only Spider Jerusalem seems to have the intestinal fortitude to hack his way through the campaign propaganda and find out the reality behind the spin. But even if he manages to being the public the unvarnished truth, the question still remains: will they do the right thing once they have it?

The City can be a looney place--especially for famed journalist Spider Jerusalem, despised and loved in equal measure(and with equal ferocity) by The City's wealthy elite and its downtrodden rabble.

Of course, with the ascension of a new president sworn to destroy him, loneliness may soon be the least of his problems. But in a town where anything can be bought, stolen, or manufactured, the truth is still in short supply, and Jerusalem is the one man determined to keep it on the market--no matter what the price.

There's no faster path to paranoia and delusion that the red carpet of celebrity, and in the city no one is more famous than mega-popular attack journalist Spider Jerusalem.

Nearly paralyzed by his own media omnipresence, Jerusalem has been reduced to a populist character, his muckraking teeth blunted by the sticky-sweet syrup of adulation. Luckily, he still has his enemies to keep him on his toes--even through a narcotized fog, nothing concentrates the mind like a high probability of imminent assassination.

The truth hurts. That's old news to outlaw journalist Spider Jerusalem, but what's changed is how high the stakes have become. Long a thorn in the side of the powerful and the hypocritical, Jerusalem has made an enemy of the new President of the United States--a man who happens to be crazier than a rabid rattlesnake and twice as mean.

Now, driven underground with his loyal(and filthy) assistants, deprived of all of his comforts and hunted like a rabbit at the dog track, Jerusalem prepares for his greatest coup yet--provided, of course, that he can survive this afternoon.
