Senator Craig even went so far as to vote for the Defense of Marriage amendment to the United States Constitution to permanently outlaw same-sex marriage, but there he was having homosexual affairs in private.
The real issue is that Senator Craig wants to use his public power to punish other people because of their sexual orientation.

Patrick Hyde, hero of Craig Thomas's earlier novels, A Hooded Crow and The Last Raven, owes his life to British secret agent Philip Cass, and Secret Intelligence Director-General Peter Shelley cleverly uses that card to coax a reluctant Hyde out of retirement for a special mission.
It seems that Cass is being held by Indian authorities for the brutal murder of his mistress, the movie-star wife of the Indian prime minister, V.K. Sharmar.
But Hyde is not about to let the man who once saved his life languish in jail, or be ``shot trying to escape.'' The action begins almost immediately, the pace never flags and Thomas's prose is direct and unobtrusive: no flab, no filler, all muscle.

 OBSERVATIONS ON POLITICIANS
"Politicians are politicians all of the time -- whether they're helping themselves to an extra-serving of farm-subsidy bacon, writing new laws about when their opponents can and can't run ads about them or appointing bureaucrats to enforce those laws.
"Politicians learned hundreds of years ago that people who had little material wealth were incredibly jealous of those who had more than they did.
While politicians and their allies are fond of decrying the fact that at any given time, millions of Americans lack health insurance, they forget that they themselves have played a major role in creating the conditions that have made going without health insurance a recipe for individual financial calamity." -- William L. Anderson
