'A prescient page-turner about secrets, lies, ruthless ambition and
betrayal' SARAH VAUGHAN In their remarkable debut political
thriller, Tom Watson, former Deputy Leader of the Labour Party, and
Imogen Robertson open the doors to The House, a place of ambition,
hope, friendship . . . and betrayal. Once allies, Labour MP Owen
McKenna and Conservative Minister Philip Bickford now face each
other across the House of Commons as bitter enemies. Then the
reappearance of a figure from their past forces them to confront
the choices that led to the tragic downfall of their former
housemate, Jay. Late one night, Owen receives a visit from a
lobbyist who promises to protect him from the consequences of his
actions in exchange for one, small favour - or to have his
reputation and career utterly destroyed if he refuses. But that
favour will sell out everything Owen believes in. As rivals gather
and whispers of wrongdoing fill the corridors of Westminster, it's
clear that someone knows the truth about Jay's Icarus-like fall
from grace. Now, the former friends must face one terrible truth...
Someone is responsible, and a reckoning is overdue. __________ 'A
rare view from the inside of the Machiavellian machinations for
power . . . Fascinating' HARRIET TYCE 'Politics red in tooth and
claw. Watson and Robertson capture, with scalpel precision, the
neurotic allure of the Westminster power game' LUKE JENNINGS 'Few
people know more about what goes on behind the political scenes
than Watson, and it is all unveiled here, in a snappy, twisty
page-turner' HOLLY WATT
