''A prescient page-turner about secrets, lies, ruthless ambition and betrayal'' SARAH VAUGHANIn 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 . . .

The history of the telegraph - the men and women who made it - and its relevance to the current Internet debateBeginning with the Abbe Nollet''s famous experiment of 1746, when he successfully demonstrated that electricity could pass from one end to the other of a chain of two hundred monks, Tom Standage tells the story of the spread of the telegraph and its transformation of the Victorian world. The telegraph was greeted by all the same concerns, hype, social panic and excitement that now surround the Internet, and Standage provides both a fascinating insight into the past and a context in which to think rather differently of today''s concerns.Standage has a wonderful prose style and an excellent eye for the telling and engaging story. Popular history at its best.
