Описание: This former political insider delivers a page-turning political conspiracy thriller
that delves right to the heart of the UK establishment.
A realistic contemporary thriller that has you gripped from the first page. A well written, deftly crafted novel set in the chaos of Westminster just after the departure of Boris Johnson, by someone who knows parliament and government from the inside.
John Rentoul - The Independent

Its a turbo-charged rollercoaster ride through the corridors of power. Betrayal, murder, sex and intrigue. This book has got it all.
Mike Graham - Presente, talkRADIO
Success
The Prime Minister is on borrowed time.
Scandal
His successor lies in wait.
Secrecy
But who else has their eyes on the prize?

The suicide of a cabinet ministers brother, unable to face the fallout of an illegal finance deal gone bad that he had organised sets in trail a series of events that reach into the very heart of government, inside No 10 Downing Street itself and threatening the very survival of the government at a crucial time for the United Kingdom

Secretary of State James Cleavers shock and grief at the death of his brother is quickly overcome by the more urgent matter of making sure that no one can follow the fraudulent money trail that he is fully implicated in, and hes relying on Karen, Chief of Staff to the already doomed Prime Minister and seeming kingmaker, with whom hes having an affair.

Together they plot Jamess accession to the top job, but there is a price to pay, over turning the decision of the British people to leave the European Union and seek once again ever closer union with Brussels. For the top job this is a betrayal James Cleaver is prepared to countenance only because his squalid financial arrangements will stay buried that way. Nothing must stop him fulfilling his ambition.

But following the sudden death of her close friend and Downing Street political aide, journalist Beth Anderson
is determined to find out who killed him and why and the finger of blame points to Cleaver, but even she will end up compromised as she realises she is up against more than even one of the most ruthlessly ambitious politicians ever to stalk the corridors of power. Not everything is as it seems and the future of the government and the fate of the United Kingdom depends on who will win in this jostle of fatal ambition? The man whos devoted his life to take the prize - or the woman set out
to destroy him.

What begins as a betrayal, leaves many victims in its wake . . .

Written by former MP Nick de Bois whos been there first hand at the highest levels of government and in the heart of the establishment, this story asks not just Who is really pulling the strings? But Who is really in charge?

Описание:

"This sweeping, brilliant and beautiful narrative is at once a love song to Black girlhood, family, history, joy, pain... and so much more. In Jeffers' deft hands, the story of race and love in America becomes the great American novel." --Jacqueline Woodson, author of Red at the Bone and Another Brooklyn

A Ms. Most Anticipated Book of the Year - A Goodreads Most Anticipated Book of the Year - A Book Page Writer to Watch

The 2020 National Book Award-nominated poet makes her fiction debut with this magisterial epic--an intimate yet sweeping novel with all the luminescence and force of Homegoing; Sing, Unburied, Sing; and The Water Dancer--that chronicles the journey of one American family, from the centuries of the colonial slave trade through the Civil War to our own tumultuous era.

The great scholar, W. E. B. Du Bois, once wrote about the Problem of race in America, and what he called "Double Consciousness," a sensitivity that every African American possesses in order to survive. Since childhood, Ailey Pearl Garfield has understood Du Bois's words all too well. Bearing the names of two formidable Black Americans--the revered choreographer Alvin Ailey and her great grandmother Pearl, the descendant of enslaved Georgians and tenant farmers--Ailey carries Du Bois's Problem on her shoulders.

Ailey is reared in the north in the City but spends summers in the small Georgia town of Chicasetta, where her mother's family has lived since their ancestors arrived from Africa in bondage. From an early age, Ailey fights a battle for belonging that's made all the more difficult by a hovering trauma, as well as the whispers of women--her mother, Belle, her sister, Lydia, and a maternal line reaching back two centuries--that urge Ailey to succeed in their stead.

To come to terms with her own identity, Ailey embarks on a journey through her family's past, uncovering the shocking tales of generations of ancestors--Indigenous, Black, and white--in the deep South. In doing so Ailey must learn to embrace her full heritage, a legacy of oppression and resistance, bondage and independence, cruelty and resilience that is the story--and the song--of America itself.

Описание: W. E. B. Du Bois never felt so at home as when he was a student in Berlin. Germany was the first place white people had treated him as an equal. But anti-Semitism was prevalent, and Du Bois` challenge, says Kwame Anthony Appiah, was to take the best of German intellectual life without its parochialism--to steal the fire without getting burned.
