A brilliantly incisive and witty novel of power and ambition - HOUSE OF CARDS for the 21st Century

Michael Dobbs returns to the subject that made him a household name -- the high drama and scandal of the political world. This time the kingmaker is a woman, Virginia Edge, mid-thirties, attractive, self-sufficient, ambitious. This is the story of her transformation from dutiful political wife to masterful manipulator of the entire political process at Westminster. She is a woman who is driven by the failings of men and the greed of others to take over their system and undermine. In this battle she has two great allies -- the intuition and determination of a wronged wife, and the blind ineptitude of Westminster men.

Michael Dobbs has been a senior adviser to both Margaret Thatcher and John Major, a Deputy Chairman of Saatchi & Saatchi, a regular presenter of BBC TV's Despatch Box and a columnist for The Mail on Sunday. His books include the best-selling HOUSE OF CARDS trilogy that became a hugely popular TV series to his recent brilliant series of historical novels about the life of Winston Churchill.
