What Others Are Saying

“Ralph Reed, a top-flight political player, has done it again with Dark Horse. This political thriller is a spellbinding mix of suspense and intrigue that takes the reader on a behind-the-scenes tour of a bitter and hard-fought presidential campaign. Dark Horse, a timely account of the best and worst of American politics, is a must-read.”

— Sean Hannity, host, The Sean Hannity Show, and cohost, Hannity & Colmes

“Ralph Reed has written a lively novel that crackles with real-life political drama. Dark Horse is a page-turner that combines an insider’s knowledge of politics with the suspense of a thriller. You won’t be able to put it down.”

— Karl Rove, former senior adviser and deputy chief of staff to
President George W. Bush

“Only Ralph Reed is capable of extending a political thriller to the realm of the spiritual and the devotional. Dark Horse is an exciting read that beats even the real thing of 2008 for suspense and drama.”

— Robert D. Novak, syndicated columnist and television commentator

Ralph Reed knows politics and has a gimlet eye for the fine details that make this novel realistic. But he also has a storyteller's gift for making that politics come alive. His story isn't going to happen in real life - but Ralph convinces us that it could.

— John Fund, Wall Street Journal

Ralph Reed is one of the country's most brilliant political practitioners and commentators. When he lets his imagination loose in Dark Horse, it's an exhilarating ride--high-octane politics brought to you by someone who has been there.

— Rich Lowry, National Review

As someone who has been at the epicenter of many of the most compelling political moments in the nation's life over the past quarter century, Ralph Reed takes us behind the headlines to the inside workings of political campaigns, with all of the intense and conflicting pressures that go with that territory. Dark Horse will entertain you and also give any reader a better understanding of a world few people have seen as "up close and personal" as Ralph Reed has over the years. Dark Horse is that good.
