    About this ebook

    Puppet Strings - The Campaigners is about the cabals, smoke-filled backrooms and how dark horses are chosen. Elections have never been about Leaders but about the Campaign Kingpins and their greed for money, ego and power.

    Meet geek, Jade Reynolds, on the verge of a breakdown after losing his kids and financial security in a bitter divorce settlement. In a new city and desperate for child custody, Jade lands a short-term contract with Shaker’s Profile. His journey begins when Shakers heads-up Public Relations in a national election and Jade is summoned to be a mole.

    Follow the four candidates running in one constituency as each camp strategize to outmaneuver the other. Watch Jade get caught in their web. Let the games begin.

    Puppet Strings - The Campaigners is a unique project that goes behind the scenes of a political campaign. In the past, most political films and stories have concentrated on election leaders and have never divulged how well-oiled political machines are created: That is, until this wildly entertaining story which was created and is masterminded for sequels while being a natural vehicle for an ensemble cast.

    Like-minded Film Producers who purchase this e-book and who would like to enter serious discussions may receive a pdf copy in screenplay format by contacting the email address listed at the end of the script.
