"This book is the Primary Colors of the Obama administration─a gripping, fictionalized version of the corruption and politically-charged backroom deals that propelled a little-known state politician to the White House. With its riveting writing and unforgettable characters, NOT BLACK AND WHITE tops the list of political thrillers." ─ Lori Andrews - Law Professor and Author of the Alex Blake Mystery Series

"NOT BLACK AND WHITE is a powerful book. It may be fictional but doesn't pull punches. It is very hard to put down. When reading of the wheeling and dealing that goes on, your blood pressure may rise. We all hear of things that amaze us with the blatant corruption that fills the coffers of our elected officials. Not Black and White tells it like it is. Spells it out in so many words. And, believe me, you will want to read every one.” ─ Mary Ann Smyth, Bookloons.com

"From the vantage point of a witness to the peculiarities of Chicago and Illinois politics spanning five decades, NOT BLACK AND WHITE, at first glance, could be dismissed as too unlikely to be plausible . . . until it quickly becomes apparent that this entertaining blend of fact and fiction, populated by greedy, power-driven scoundrels, mirrors recent history in many ways." ─ Jack Guthman - Partner Emeritus, Taft Stettinius & Hollister, LLP
