Review Detail

There is something compelling about the way Sara Branmore handles this take on the popular fiction theme of corruption in political circles. The only difference is that, in this case, the corruption is discovered in a rather original way and the motivation for the whole package of intrigue is neither money, sex nor power.

That factor makes this, in my opinion, a rather unique book and if the playground of the political scene interests you at all, this is definitely a book worth reading.

The slightly soapbox ending to this book has echoes of Animal Farm or 1984 (George Orwell) and there are certainly some astute observations which might well encourage the reader to think carefully about reasons behind the way the world is.
