Now a Netflix Film
This intricate, fast-paced story, whose many scenes and details fit together like so many pieces of a jigsaw puzzle, is Didion's incisive and chilling look at a modern world where things are not working as they should and where the oblique and official language is as sinister as the events it is covering up. The narrator introduces Elena McMahon, estranged from a life of celebrity fundraisers and from her powerful West Coast husband, Wynn Janklow, whom she has left, taking Catherine, her daughter, to become a reporter for The Washington Post. Suddenly walking off the 1984 campaign, she finds herself boarding a plane for Florida to see her father, Dick McMahon. She becomes embroiled in her Dick's business though "she had trained herself since childhood not to have any interest in what he was doing." It is from this moment that she is caught up in something much larger than she could have imagined, something that includes Ambassador-at-Large Treat Austin Morrison and Alexander Brokaw, the ambassador to an unnamed Caribbean island. Into this startling vision of conspiracies, arms dealing, and assassinations, Didion makes connections among Dallas, Iran-Contra, and Castro, and points up how "spectral companies with high-concept names tended to interlock." As this book builds to its terrifying finish, we see the underpinnings of a dark historical underbelly. This is our system, the one "trying to create a context for democracy and getting its] hands a little dirty in the process."Binding Type: Paperback

It really does the job!
Size: 8 Oz
This stuff actually works really well. It brought all my plastic back to life. And although I don't think it's designed to use on metal my toolbox is black and it looked faded and I did the toolbox with it and it looks brand new now. There's a die in this product that makes it last longer than most other products I believe. And if your plastics are really bad like some of mine were give it to treatments and you'll be amazed. You have to let it dry for a while it will be sticky depending on the climate for a day or so but it's pretty much dry it won't you know smudge or anything but it just feels sticky to the touch for a day or two. I've been through the car wash a few times since I treated it and it didn't hurt that new finished.
I do recommend this product.

Excellent results, easy to use, impressed!

I used the glide coat ceramic sponge applicators (it’s what I had) and the absorption was perfect. Application on trim pieces was super easy. Had to get a little particular around my mirrors and window trim (I didn’t tape, oops) I used 4-5 throwaway microfiber towels to wipe excess. Super pleased with 1st coat, may go back for seconds on my tonneau. I left each section to cure for about 7 minutes then wiped with towel. Leaves a nice matte finish that pulls out the sparkles in my Raptor trim. No sticky residue leftover.
