Hill Kemp is a former Texas State Representative and his novel, Capitol Offense, ISBN 1878096702, rips away the Austin facade and reveals a surprising cast of the real players and their cut-throat contentions. In the place where George W. Bush and Karl Rove learned their abc's of governing, Kemp's novel exposes the hidden 90% of the governing process which never makes its way into the news. Capitol Offense, is a parody of then governor Bush and virtually a literary political cartoon. The page-turner was labeled "dangerously close to reality" by one Austin, Texas veteran.
An equally gripping sequel A Lone Star Special (ISBN9781935137450) released in August, 2008 drives the legislative thriller path further into the murky depths of Texas politics. His children's chapter book, Lucky Penny. This e-book is in production.
Hill Kemp lives in the forest and lake country in northwest Louisiana. He is the father of two and grandfather of three.
