The new political thriller from the author of the bestselling Francis Urquhart trilogy: House of Cards, To Play the King and The Final Cut.

From the creator of Francis Urquhart – the most memorable politician of the last decade – comes a sensational new political hero: Thomas Goodfellowe MP.

A backbench MP with a tumultuous private life, Goodfellowe has a talent for asking awkward questions, and his overriding concern for ordinary people and determination to expose abuses of power have a habit of thrusting him into conflict with the mightiest forces in the land – regardless of the personal cost.

When he becomes embroiled in a new Press Bill, he is confronted by the Prime Minister, the police – and Freddy Corsa, a desperate and ruthless newspaper proprietor who sets out to destroy what little remains of Goodfellowe’s reputation.
