Volg de berekende opkomst van een meedogenloze protagonist die slinkse tactieken en achterkamertjes gebruikt om het hoogste ambt te bereiken. Het is een aangrijpende verkenning van machtsstrijd binnen de gangen van Westminster, vol verraad en het onophoudelijke streven naar controle. Lezers zullen geboeid raken door de authentieke weergave van politiek achter de schermen en de moreel complexe personages.
