Politics peeled bare. The second darkly satirical thriller from the authors of The Marmalade Files. Harry Dunkley, dishevelled but tenacious journalist, returns for another thrillingly satirical romp through the corridors of power. Praise for THE MARMALADE FILES: 'A banquet of bastardry' Daily Telegraph '[A] cynical, opinionated, lively gallop through the landscape of contemporary Australian politics' Sydney Morning Herald 'This jokey look at the goldfish bowl of Canberra politics takes the world we know, adds a spy story and feeds in some serious issues like our relations with China and the US' Jennifer Byrne, Australian Women's Weekly 'A joy-ride through an all too recognisable federal parliament ...Lewis and Uhlmann use the familiar circus of malevolence and blunted expectations to draw the reader into the bigger story of Australia and its place on the perilously shifting ground between China and the US' Weekend Australian 'A rollicking good story' Good Reading.
