Turning Final

Turning Final is David Mallach's sixth novel. Set in the wake of a momentous political victory for Senator Becket Rosemore, the story that unfolds takes us behind the scenes of a man who would be president. Setting his sights on the White House, Beck embarks on a journey to become the most powerful man in the world. He enjoys rock-star status and appears to be a force for change and equality. He enlists the help of his fiancée, Camille O'Keefe, a renowned author and spiritualist, who can bring a wider, softer appeal to his candidacy. Everything in Beck's life is going according to plan.

As the story progresses, Turning Final heads in a very different direction. Mallach takes us into a world we seldom see, a world where the most powerful men in the world reveal who they really are. What unfolds is a penetrating, disturbing tale of privilege, deceit, and abuse. Mallach shows us the darkness that lurks inside the men who run our world, a world on the precipice of moral decline, and he does so with startling clarity and frankness.

In the midst of the turmoil, Camille O'Keefe emerges as a force of her own, a genuinely female voice that gives us hope for the spirit of possibility. Camille O'Keefe must wend her way through a world which she is ill-equipped to handle. She must find within herself the well-spring of her own power, a model for hope and humanity the world over.
