About this audiobook

The system is broken. Everyone knows it. Nobody can fix it. Until a federal audit blows the whole thing apart—exposing coordinated electoral fraud reaching into both parties at once. With no legitimate government left to speak of, a desperate Congress unearths an emergency clause buried in the original Convention notes: rule by lottery. Twelve ordinary Americans, summoned like jurors, are handed the keys to the most powerful nation on earth. A customer service rep. A teenage Twitch streamer. A school cafeteria manager. A disgraced ex-senator. No donors. No ideology. No script. What unfolds is stranger than any pundit could have predicted—because the amateurs start working. Problems that languished for decades begin, improbably, to move. But the professionals who built this broken machine aren't stepping aside quietly. They're organized, they're funded, and they've been playing this game since before these twelve were born.
