SYNOPSIS
A political plot so audacious that it will upend the British Monarchy. Murder, intrigue, lies and skullduggery abound in this pacy political thriller.
Robert Pelham is a ruthless operator with ambitions beyond anyone’s imagination. To end the British monarchy. To take power himself. And even, undermiine the President of the United States. He is also the Deputy Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. But Jack Lockyer, of Scotland Yard, is on his case - when he isn’t drinking himself into oblivion to hide his own emotional turmoil. Will he be able to stop him before more innocent people get killed?
WHY I LOVED NARRATING THIS BOOK
This is a rip-roaring political thriller, very much in the vein of House of Cards - both the original UK version and the longer-running US adaptation. The characters are everything you want them to be - the sly, conniving politician, the rumbunctious US president, the dysfunctional detective - all circling around each other, stalking their prey. There are moments of high drama from the outset and a dramatic ending that will grip you and leave you wanting more.
