About the Book
The follow-up to the bestselling supernatural adventure, Who Sent Clement?
Sir Charles Huxley kept a dark secret — a secret the former government minister should have taken to the grave.
His son, William, lives an uneventful life in his late father’s shadow. He never planned on becoming a middle-aged bachelor, and he definitely didn’t plan a career as a low-level politician, but that is now William’s lot … until it’s not.
One evening, William has a chance encounter which sets off an escalating series of sinister events, culminating in a damning revelation about his father’s past. That revelation drags William into the darkest of blackmail plots.
With his blackmailer having cunningly closed every exit, William is trapped, and faces personal and financial ruin. That is until an odd job man working at his local bar steps forward and offers help.
With no alternative, William is forced to join his peculiar saviour on a desperate mission to stop his blackmailer, and unearth the shattering truth about the wrong’un.
"A twisty, page-turning plot laced with humour and skilful characterisation. Incredibly, at the end of the book I actually shed real tears for the protagonist...a politician! For that feat alone, I cannot praise the author enough."
"What the author excels at is writing stories that put unexceptional people into fantasy situations, with enough realism to make you not only suspend disbelief, but also really care about the outcome of the protagonist."
