Synopsis

14 YEARS 5 PRIME MINISTERS THE PARTY IS OVER THE SELF-DESTRUCTION OF THE CONSERVATIVE PARTY With unparalleled access to people who were in the room, Nadine outlines exactly how we got here, and what really happened, in this astonishing real-life political thriller.

From the humiliation of Liz Truss’s 49-day premiership to the shameful, self-serving drift of Rishi Sunak’s time in office, is the story of a political party on the verge of extinction.

I borrowed this audio book from the library because I want to study the writing techniques of thriller writers. It's not a great book for this purpose. I gave up after chapter 8. Up to that point the book fails to hint at what the bad guy's (Belias's) ultimate plan is. Belias is manipulating ordinary......more

Goodreads review by Jeffrey on August 22, 2013

What would you do for wealth or power? Would you steal? Would you kill? Would you join a group of like minded people intent on amassing power, fame and fortune through the manipulation of events or the outright death of your business, political or familial rivals. Jeff Abbott's new Sam Capra thrille......more
