A gripping political thriller, Night of Camp David puts a junior U.S. Senator at the center of a terrifying constitutional crisis when he begins to suspect that the President of the United States may be losing his mind. Fletcher Knebel, co-author of the landmark political novel Seven Days in May, constructs a taut, suspenseful narrative that forces its protagonist to weigh his career, his loyalty, and the fate of the nation against a seemingly impossible dilemma. With the authority of a seasoned Washington insider, Knebel chronicles the insidious nature of power and the psychological fragility that can hide behind the most formidable offices. The novel presents a chillingly plausible scenario, asking what a lone man of conscience can do when the most powerful person on Earth may no longer be fit to govern. Sharply written and propulsively plotted, it stands as one of the most prescient and unsettling works of American political fiction.
