To the Lions

Autor Holly Watt
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 3 sep 2019
An international thriller featuring a female journalist who stumbles upon a dark conspiracy, and her determination to follow the clues, no matter how far that takes her. Casey Benedict, star reporter at the Post, has infiltrated the lives and exposed the lies of countless politicians and power players. Using her network of contacts, and her ability to slip into whatever identity suits the situation, Casey is always on the search for the next big story, no matter how much danger this might place her in, or what the cost might be, emotionally. Tipped off by an overheard conversation at an exclusive London nightclub, she begins to investigate the apparent suicide of a wealthy young British man whose death has left his fianc e and family devastated. The young man's death, however, is only the tipping point of a much more sinister and dangerous scandal involving the world's most powerful leaders and magnates--men who are gathering in northern Africa for an extreme and secret hunt. With fellow reporter Miranda and combat veteran Ed by her side, Casey's determined hunt for the truth will take her from the glitz of St. Tropez to the deserts of Libya and on to the very darkest corners of the human mind.

Recenzii

Superbly entertaining ... This promises to be an outstanding series
A first-rate Fleet Street novel ... equally good on the spy-like ploys used by undercover hacks as it is on tensions and teamwork in the newsroom
Superbly plotted. frighteningly plausible and utterly unforgettable! This is a rollercoaster of a book. To the Lions is quite sensational
This fast-paced thriller follows journalist Casey Benedict on a dark trail of murder, political corruption and lies in a well-told tale that grabs you from the very first page
More than a touch of le Carré to this debut. Watt builds the tension magnificently
This book is astonishing. Containing the most horrific concept for a crime novel I've ever encountered, it manages also to be beautifully written and tragic. It made me question the value we put on human life and consider what it means to be human. Utterly unforgettable
Eye-popping in its revelations of undercover journalists' tactics . Holly Watt's knowledge and experience as an investigative reporter add a seriousness to this fast-moving [thriller]
An amazing book . Completely riveting ... A breath-holding rollercoaster of a read, which opens doors and windows into the way the world is that are genuinely shocking
Tightly plotted, frighteningly plausible and packed with insider knowledge, To The Lions is an astonishing debut
Sensational! I loved it. Superbly plotted, and what a brilliant series lead! A sure hit
