    Summary

    Carol Sturka is the forty-seventh President of the United States, and the most convincing thing about her presidency might be her marriage to Julian Vane, which is warm and genuine and entirely platonic. Helen Umstead, who serves as her Press Secretary, is the woman who sees through all of it, and who Carol cannot stop noticing in ways that have absolutely nothing to do with press strategy. After a Republican senator starts questioning the true nature of the marriage and an emergency in the Arctic forces the administration into intense scrutiny, Carol or Helen learn that the White House contains no space more hazardous than any room that leaves the two of them alone.
