Beskrivelse af DECEIT
One man's fight against political corruption.
Will he win or will politics and power threaten democracy?
After 40 years' service, the Clerk of the House of Representatives, Gordon O'Brien, hopes to enjoy his final week before silently disappearing to go fly-fishing.
A tragic plane crash changes everything.
Gordon is forced to defend the integrity of the parliament against a corrupt prime minister hell bent on getting his way.
Prime Minister Gerrard is forcing through parliament legislation for offshore immigration centres. The legislation includes a generous secret commission negotiated with the Indonesian president. He needs the money to fund his wife's dream of retiring to Paris.
Gordon detects a fraud after discovering mysterious changes to the funding legislation. He must convince others of the fraud so they can stop the prime minister. He convinces an investigative journalist to research the legislation and covertly uses the opposition party to stymie its progress.
An enraged Gerrard insists on enacting the legislation within the week. He turns the tables against Gordon leveraging the Speaker to ignore any parliamentary challenges from the Clerk or the opposition party.
Will a reluctant Gordon expose himself to end the deceit by pushing parliament to act against Gerrard and the Speaker? Or will the prime minister escape to a new life in Paris?
DECEIT is a gripping political thriller featuring compelling characters, a page-turning story, and an 'everyman' hero facing adversity.
If you like fast paced, crime thrillers with a touch of political mystery then Richard Evans' book will not disappoint you.
Grab this story from the former MP to learn how parliament can be manipulated and how decent people doing everyday jobs protect our democracy. Is this story of political corruption fact or fiction?
