{"product_id":"the-high-road-1","title":"The High Road","description":"This deeply funny satire continues the story of Honest Angus McLintock, an amateur politician who dares to do the unthinkable: tell the truth.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJust when Daniel Addison thinks he can escape his job as a political aide, Angus McLintock, the no-hope candidate he helped into Parliament, throws icy cold water over his plans. Angus has just brought down the government with a deciding vote. Now the crusty Scot wants Daniel to manage his next campaign. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSoon Daniel is helping Angus fight an uphill battle against \"Flamethrower\" Fox, a Conservative notorious for his dirty tactics. Together they decide to take \"The High Road\" and—against all odds—turn the race into a nail-biter with hilarious ups and downs, cookie-throwing seniors, and even a Watergate-style break-in. But that's only the beginning. Add a political storm in the capital and a side-splitting visit from the U.S. President and his alcoholic wife, and Terry Fallis's second novel is a wildly entertaining read full of deft political satire and laugh-out-loud comedy.","brand":"McClelland \u0026 Stewart","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55779315548233,"sku":null,"price":12.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0956\/5336\/3785\/files\/14063813482462_dca7a8ba-a56d-484f-9180-20b1820766f9.jpg?v=1782932792","url":"https:\/\/morebetterbooks.com\/products\/the-high-road-1","provider":"More Better Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
