...door open for White, who was bored with seven years in the undemanding job of Massachusetts secretary of state. As it was, the built-up resentment against Collins' planners and button-down administrators very nearly lost him the election.

Steve Ihnat's high-style performance as a psychopathic satyr is a welcome change from the suave ruthlessness of Aspic's urbane spies...
