| SENATOR ANDREW CARRINGTON, majority leader in
the U.S. Senate and a leading candidate for the presidency, is
murdered in his residence library after returning from a fact-finding
mission to Columbia. AMANDA CARRINGTON, the Senator's
wife, promptly retains the services of SHELBY COLE, a
criminologist and former Secret Service agent, to prove to the F.B.I.
and the local police that she did not have a hand in her husband's
death. In the course of his investigation Cole meets WAYNE PATRICK, Senator Carrington's administrative aide; THERESA CAMPBELL, a Senate Foreign Relations Committee staffer who is friendly with Patrick, and BARTON AMCOURT, a Cental Intelligence Agency (CIA) official who was working with Senator Carrington on a classified covert operation in Columbia. When MELISSA FARRELL, a hospital pathologist, discovers a micro chip possessing surveillance and transmitting capabilities implanted behind one of Senator Carrington's ears the murder investigation deepens into one of international significance. As Cole proceeds with his duties it becomes progressively clearer that motives for the murder of Senator Carrington abound. Did Amanda Carrington arrange for her husband's demise in retaliation for his unbridled womanizing? Or did Wayne Patrick do the deed to keep his dark relationship with the Senator from coming to light? Or was it Barton Amcourt who feared the Senator had uncovered something personally damaging to him? Or did Theresa Campbell know more about the suspect explosion that took the life of her father, Colonel Travis Campbell, during his clandestine mission to Columbia? With his own life in jeopardy Cole draws ever closer to Melissa Farrell en route to unraveling a mystery that has the audience guessing right to the conclusion of this three-act production which takes place entirely in Senator Carrington's library. | |
