| Plot Summary of Hill Games |
|---|
"Blackmail and bribery. Virtue suborned by vice. Not the sort of events that we would associate with the deliberations of the US Congress. In Hill Games, they are the ready tools of a cabal of schemers who seek to
manipulate the legislative process for their own profit.
"
Charles Cronin, Resident Scholar
