Story Behind The Book
This is the second book in the Jim McGill series. The idea originated with the thought that it would not be too long before the United States elects its first female president, and Hillary Clinton almost made that happen in 2008. So I wondered what would her husband do if he wasn't content to handle only ceremonial functions? Then I thought it would be interesting if the president's husband was the cop who solved the murder of the future president's first husband, married her and then became the first private eye to live in the White House.
