What is The successor about?
Professor Kent Cornett's research on presidential succession in Mexico is taking unexpected turns. What is always a high-stakes affair wrapped in secrecy - just how the president of Mexico handpicks his successor - now becomes a backdrop for murder and intrigue. A librarian in Mexico City who for years has helped Kent is suddenly brutally murdered; Kent is courted by agents of the United States intelligence community who seek his help in conducting espionage in Mexico; and he finds his every move shadowed in both countries.

Why Kent's research so threatens to disrupt naming the new president of Mexico makes for a fast-paced political thriller.
