Post-university life doesn’t suit Phyl. Time passes slowly living back
home with her parents, working a zero-hour contract serving Japanese
food to holidaymakers at Heathrow’s Terminal 5. As for her budding
plans of becoming a writer, those are going nowhere.
That is, until family friend Chris comes to stay. He’s been on the path
to uncover a sinister think-tank, founded at Cambridge University in
the 1980s, that’s been scheming to push the British government in a
more extreme direction. One that’s finally poised to put their plans
into action.
But speaking truth to power can be dangerous - and power will stop at
nothing to stay on top.
As Britain finds itself under the leadership of a new Prime Minister
whose tenure will only last for seven weeks, Chris pursues his story to
a conference being held deep in the Cotswolds, where events take a
sinister turn and a murder enquiry is soon in progress. But will the
solution to the mystery lie in contemporary politics, or in a literary
enigma that is almost forty years old?
Darting between decades and genres, THE PROOF OF MY INNOCENCE is a
wickedly funny and razor-sharp new novel from one of Britain’s most
beloved novelists, showing how the key to understanding the present can
often be found in the murkiest corners of the past.
