579. The Zero Game (Brad Meltzer)

Synopsis from author:
Matthew Mercer and Harris Sandler are playing a mysterious game. It's a game almost no one knows about — not their friends, not their co-workers, and certainly not their bosses, who are some of the most powerful Senators and Congressmen on Capitol Hill.

It's a game that has everything: risk, reward, mystery, and the thrill of knowing that — just by being invited to play — you’ve confirmed your status as a true power broker in Washington.

But as Matthew and Harris quickly discover, the Zero Game is hiding a secret so explosive, it will shake Washington to its core. And when one player turns up dead, a dedicated young staffer will find himself relying on a tough, idealistic seventeen-year-old Senate page to help keep him alive ... as he plays the Zero Game to its heart-pounding end.


My rating: 3 stars
