English
A broke retired art teacher links his brain to a stolen robot and runs it for president, to get the money out of politics and find out who's really been sitting at the desk. Harold Horcross taught art in Paperton for thirty-one years. Then the pension that promised him "enough" turned into half a sandwich. One morning at the Rusty Nickel, he watches the President freeze on live TV and turn at the hips like a desk chair. Nobody else notices. Harold does. He's spent his whole life drawing what's actually there. What follows is a stolen humanoid robot, a brain implant, a campaign run out of a storage unit, a secret society that keeps its ledger in brown ink, and a woman in Youngstown with a glass jar who changes everything. Political satire for adults about money, power, and who gets to print belief. It ends with hope. 22 chapters and an epilogue, about 49,000 words. EPUB and PDF.
