A Kanha and Colbey Thriller

When Chief Whip Esme Kanha learns of the sudden death of the Minister for Personal Information, she bitterly regrets missing his desperate calls the previous evening. Unconvinced by the verdict of suicide, and suspicious that corrupt colleagues played some part in the man’s death, she decides to investigate—but she must tread carefully in a near-future world dominated by technology, where "what can see, watches, what can hear, listens, and what can be followed is tracked."

When opposition Chief Whip Esme Kanha is handed a secret dossier containing evidence of government corruption, she suspects its original owner, a top journalist, was murdered for gathering it. Despite the danger, she feels she must investigate. Meanwhile, lowly backbencher Harry Colbey is working his own leads. A known campaigner against big tech, he is often sent data from anonymous sources and this time round he has something truly alarming.

When opposition back bencher Harry Colbey uncovers a corrupt plot between senior government ministers and a big tech organisation intent on enriching its owners, he finds himself at the mercy of deep fake accusations that are spinning out of control. Only Esme Kanha, opposition Chief Whip, believes his protestations of innocence. In a race against time, she must clear his name and expose what is really going on—but in a world dominated by AI, where their every movement is tracked and every conversation listened to, the stakes are dangerously high.
