Capitol Changing, the debut novel of Mary Walters, is a political thriller set in Washington, D.C. in the year 2020. After a global hacking event shakes the foundation of American government and irrevocably breaks citizens' faith in the democratic system, the American people decided to literally take back their government. No more would people be elected to the House of Representatives; with the 28th Amendment to the Constitution, the House would become a conglomeration of randomly selected citizens. Capitol Changing reveals how these 435 Americans face the political establishment - including many politicians still clinging to the old ways - as well as each other.
