Capitol Murder by Phillip Margolin

A terrorist plot designed to kill thousands. A senator with sordid extracurricular activities. A doggedly determined investigative reporter with a painful past. Those are the ingredients for a real page-turner. And that's just what you'll get with the newest Phillip Margolin, Capitol Murder. Margolin brings in characters from earlier books--Dana Cutler, ace investigator, and her lawyer friends, Brad Miller and his wife Ginny, who are working for the corrupt senator and the Department of Justice, respectively. But it isn't necessary to have read the earlier books to enjoy this thriller.
