The Whitehall Mandarin

Lady Somers is the first woman to head up the Ministry of Defence. She also has something to hide.

Catesby’s job is to uncover her story and bury it forever. His quest leads him through the sex scandals of London in the Swinging '60s and then on to Moscow, where a shocking message changes everything. His next mission is a desperate hunt through the war-torn jungles of Southeast Asia, where he finally makes a heartbreaking discovery that is as personal as it is political.

This captivating novel is set in a world of distorted reflections where nothing or no one is what they seem to be.
