The Girl Behind the Numbers

Tatiana McArthur, MA International Relations 2010

This is my first novel and it was recently released for purchase. I’ve loved writing and imagining stories for as long as I can remember. And, as my degree would indicate, I’ve always been interested in politics. My ideal book is one I can pick up in an airport and happily read for the duration of the flight, and so I wrote the kind of book I’d want to take with me on a trip…or in the current state of things, curl up with on the couch for an afternoon. It’s a political thriller with a touch of romance.

When Charlotte Finnan takes a job as a data scientist for a political campaign, she thinks she knows what to expect. She knows the job and how to anticipate variables. What she doesn’t expect is to fall for the prime minister hopeful. One email ruins everything. Threats, suspicion, and fear erode any sense of safety. Someone wants her gone. As election night looms, time is running out. Charlotte must use all her wits to keep herself alive.
