Pages : 496
Book Description
Tom Brown, disgraced former Home Secretary, is missing presumed dead. The police had been seeking him in connection with the deaths of several people, and his disappearance effectively closes the case. Grace Goody, Ministerial Director of Justice, is trying to rebuild her life in the light of a new romantic attachment, but always with the lurking threat of exposure given her involvement in Tom’s demise. When a photograph, taken by a journalist's girlfriend during a sailing trip around Scotland, raises serious doubts about the circumstances surrounding Tom's case, ripples of panic spread through Westminster's corridors of power. Retired Detective Chief Inspector, David Gerrard, begins to take an interest in the case, placing himself in danger from forces seeking to suppress the evidence, including a deadly killer with some powerful connections, and a convicted murderer whom David put away twenty years ago and who has just been released. Meanwhile, Maggie, Tom’s wife, is called to a meeting in London where she is shown an image of a man who has recently used her husband’s debit card and, suddenly, for everyone close to the case, nothing appears to be straightforward any more. As pressure mounts on Grace, she finds herself plunged into an international incident involving Hotel St Kilda, the UK's off-shore prison in the Atlantic, placing her at the centre of a potentially disastrous rift between the UK and its closest ally - a situation she will be fortunate to survive, Even if she does, what will be awaiting her back in London?

Last of the Blue and Gray
Author: Richard A. Serrano
Publisher: Smithsonian Institution
ISBN: 1588343952
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 231
Book Description
Richard Serrano, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist for the Los Angeles Times, pens a story of two veterans. In the late 1950s, as America prepared for the Civil War centennial, two very old men lay dying. Albert Woolson, 109 years old, slipped in and out of a coma at a Duluth, Minnesota, hospital, his memories as a Yankee drummer boy slowly dimming. Walter Williams, at 117 blind and deaf and bedridden in his daughter's home in Houston, Texas, no longer could tell of his time as a Confederate forage master. The last of the Blue and the Gray were drifting away; an era was ending. Unknown to the public, centennial officials, and the White House too, one of these men was indeed a veteran of that horrible conflict and one according to the best evidence nothing but a fraud. One was a soldier. The other had been living a great, big lie.
