Please join the LA Law Library book discussion group as we conclude our 2020 theme of “Voting!” with a twist – a novel/thriller about voting! Join the discussion of The Voter File, by David Pepper on Tuesday December 15, 2020 from 6:30 to 8:00 pm. This will also be an opportunity to look back at what happened in the 2020 election.
The Voter File features reporter Jack Sharpe, recently let go from his network TV job and drawn into freelancing by the surprising results in an obscure Wisconsin judicial election where a heavily favored incumbent inexplicably lost to a newcomer. Sharpe has to fend off a brutal hit man as he follows the trail of a foreign plot to take over entire segments of the U.S. economy. The book is a well-researched, gripping look at one of the many perilous wrinkles in the electoral system (plus it is fun to read!)
