Of course Robert Peston is a name and face we all know, I have an interest in politics and meaning I was very excited to receive an advance copy of this book.
Right from the very beginning the book grabbed my attention and managed to keep up the pace and anticipation all the way through. Even when you think you’ve worked out what’s going on, there’s another twist or surprise pop up to keep you guessing.
We follow Gil Peck, a broadsheet tabloid politic editor in the run up to a general election. As the book begins he received a call to say his estranged sister has been in an accident. When she dies Gil becomes embroiled in trying to prove it wasn’t an accident, but who could have engineered Claire’s death and what possible motives could they have. Gil is great as a character, he has an enquiring mind, likes a bit on the dark side and has complicated relationships.
