What Season 5 of House of Cards

Season five picks up where season four left off, in the middle of the presidential race. Frank and Claire Underwood face off against the fiery Republican Will Conway, and both campaigns grow increasingly heated. While Congress debates whether to investigate Frank, the couple turns to fear of terrorism and all kinds of pressure to tip the balance. After the election, some alliances dissolve and power is once again up for grabs. The big question of the season is whether Frank and Claire's relationship can survive so much ambition.
