Falling Together, the fiction debut of award-winning author Randolph Anderson, is a fusion of literary, political and social genres that will draw in readers of many backgrounds and persuasions. It is late December, 2011, and the 2012 Republican presidential primaries will begin in a few days. At a family party on Christmas Eve, divided loyalties erupt over wealthy conservative Senator "Uncle" Ralph Mason's presidential campaign. Events quickly give way to dubious fund-raising, an ad blitz, a fateful TV interview and press conference, invasion of personal corporate files, a funny Senate hearing about kidneys, planting "Gotchas," ancestry, race, and mistaken parentage. Three very unlike family members are forced to dig down to the roots of America's collapsing public life and faltering global supremacy. Their astounding makeovers change them and could change the nation. Falling Together exposes the bedrock of political striving and thinking-from campaign strategies to morality, national destiny, the economy, and the changing electorate.
