The Mormon Candidate by Avraham
Azrieli is a fast-paced political thriller that will have you
wanting to turn the page until the very end. Ben Teller, a freelance
photojournalist comes up on a motorcycle accident during a veteran's
ride, but soon Ben discovers that there is much more to this accident
than meets the eye. With clues put together from the crime scene, Ben
must discover what the dead man's mission was and follow it through.
The book takes readers past politics
and into the world of the Mormon church. It is an eye-opening
discovery of just what the church is about and why they choose to
stay so secretive.
While many political thrillers tend to
rehash the same cliches, this book goes beyond a typical political
thriller to provide the reader with a new angle on the privileged few
who consider themselves the best of best, waiting to serve the people
in the office of the president. The Mormon Candidate is well written,
and more importantly, well researched to present a realistic picture
of the Mormon church. I would recommend this book to anyone who loves
political thrillers, but also to those who just love to read a good
story.
