Out of the blue, Devin Briar gets a press relations job offer from a Cabinet Secretary. When he arrives in Washington D.C. his life takes a turn toward the surreal. Promotions at work seem to be driven by innuendo as much as circumstance, and suddenly he's on the radar of the entire Executive Branch of the government.

Review by: Sarah Derengowski on Dec. 10, 2012 :
Devin Briar is a fast paced political comedy.

Devin, the young charismatic politician, and his wonderfully weird roommate, Robin, a nobel peace prize winning physicist, join forces with Devin's new staff to combat dark forces at work within the senate.

This is at times laugh out loud funny and very entertaining with great characters.

I would definitely recommend this.
