Özet
1997. A desperate government clings to power; a hungry opposition will do anything to win. And journalist Gil Peck watches from the sidelines, a respected commentator on the sport of power politics. He thinks he knows how things work. He thinks he knows the rules.
But when Gil's estranged sister Clare dies in a hit-and-run, he begins to believe it was no accident. Clare knew some of the most sensitive secrets in government. One of them might have got her killed.
As election day approaches, Gil follows the story into the dark web of interests that link politics, finance and the media. And the deeper he goes, the more he realises how wrong he has been.
Power isn't sport: it's war. And if Gil doesn't stop digging, he might be the next casualty.

Eleştirmen yorumları
Brilliant. Politically insightful, scary, satirical, beautifully paced and has a great cast of characters led by its narrator, Gil Peck
Secrets, spies, sex, betrayals, murder and a scandal that leads all the way to the top of British politics . . . A gripping read
An engaging tale of government secrets...this debut novel is a hell of a read
An intelligent, elegant and gripping thriller
Robert Peston is a classy writer and this is a really compelling thriller that peels back the curtain to take you right to the heart of the political action. A genuine page-turner
Incredible, unputdownable, riveting, revelatory, brave. Wow. Exudes authenticity. So timely and courageous. A strident, erudite, compelling cri de coeur.
A riveting tale of power, wealth, intrigue and sex. Great storytelling combined with lavish helpings of Peston's unique insight into how Britain really works
A compelling, gripping page-turner of a thriller. Robert has brilliantly drawn on his three decades watching politics from the inside and turned all that gossip, insight and intrigue into a cracking read
Robert Peston's first work of fiction marks the debut of a truly brilliant thriller writer. The pace, intrigue and plot will keep you turning the page - and guessing - till the end. An exceptional book from one of the great journalists of his times
About the political intrigue around Whitehall correspondent Gil Peck, whose sister is killed in a suspicious hit-and-run accident
The journalist's debut thriller is set amid dodgy interests in 1997, with New Labour on the brink of power.
Looking forward to listening to more titles by Peston.
