Summary:
"âğRachel to the Rescue is a mischievous political satire, with a delightful cast of characters, from one of America's funniest novelists"-- Provided by publisher.
Rachel Klein is sacked from her job at the White House after she sends an email criticizing Donald Trump. Escorted off the premises, she is hit by a speeding car driven by what the press discreetly calls "a personal friend of the President." Does that explain the flowers, the get-well wishes at a press briefing, the hush money offered by a lawyer at her hospital bedside? Rachel's recovery is soothed by doting parents, matchmaking room-mates, a new job as aide to a journalist whose books aim to defame the President, and unexpected love at the local wine store. But secrets leak, and Rachel's new-found happiness has to make room for more than a little chaos. -- adapted from back cover
