They know everything...
who lives, who dies, who to save, who to sacrifice, who to kill
A right wing government minister, caught in an affair with a younger woman, offers an exclusive interview to a left-leaning national broadsheet newspaper - and he asks for firebrand investigative reporter Tom Capgras by name.
But when Capgras turns up at the Tory grandee’s country home, he finds the man dead from a shotgun blast to the head. In a pocket he discovers a note with his own name and address and one additional word - ‘Apostle’.
A mysterious package left on his doorstep, clandestine meetings, cryptic clues lead Capgras towards a sinister truth: ‘Apostle’ is a top secret Government surveillance project, complete with an algorithm to decide, in time of crisis, who lives and who dies; who to save, who to sacrifice and who to kill.
He holds in his hands the scoop of a lifetime. But the state will stop at nothing to prevent the leak. As the forces of the establishment close in around him, Capgras faces a race against time to find the proof, to go public, and get family and friends to safety before the powers-that-be silence him once and for all.
A political spy and crime thriller with heaps of heart, action and attitude.
*Each book in the 'Capgras Conspiracy' series works as a standalone story, so they can be read in any order. However, the lives of the people in the stories are changed significantly by events and experiences, so there is a natural progression. Ideally, start at the beginning, but feel free to dive in wherever you wish if one book in particular catches your eye. *
