It is the most divisive election campaign in U.S. history and the Republican and Democratic Party presidential nominees are locked in an ugly fight to capture the public's trust. It's a familiar story; one paints himself as a political outsider, the other carries the baggage of a lifetime in Washington. Both candidates-and the two party establishment-are taken by surprise by the sudden success of a political reality show designed to find the American best suited to be the nation's next President. After a faltering start, The iCandidate becomes a ratings juggernaut with eight finalists from wildly different walks of life battling through challenges that will both bond and break them. There's a doctor, a lawyer, a former house cleaner, a PR flack, a football legend, an advertising executive, a senator's daughter and a cross-dressing Mayor. Emboldened by the show's success, the producers decide to launch a real-life iCan Campaign, pitching the winning iCandidate against the two party nominees in the race for the White House.But as the iCampaign gathers pace it becomes apparent that there are people with a more sinister stake in the outcome. The populist revolution will come at a cost that threatens to turn the world order on its head. The iCandidate is a page-turning thriller that shows just how much can be achieved when the public truly invests in the search for the right President and will keep readers guessing right down to the final page if America made the right choice.
