A gripping read. As expected from this author, this book is full of insight into the murky world of politics and journalism.
From the start the story draws you back to 1997, on the cusp of the general election and holds your attention right through to election night.
Gil Peck is a political editor who finds himself drawn into a family and political crisis when his sister is killed when knocked off her bike. Gil feels his sister has always been the golden child. Gil’s father is an ex-major player for the Labour Party and so as a political editor Gil feels the need to prove his impartiality.
A brilliant read with characters who keep you captivated; no one is hugely likeable, many are downright horrible, and some are very relatable.
Gil is forced to face his demons as he attempts to find out the truth about his sister’s death and uncovers a dark and seedy secret that may influence the election.
