A novel by

 
 
The year after it hosted two Royal Weddings, Windsor Castle catches fire. It soon becomes clear that the conflagration was deliberately arranged to provide cover for a daring robbery - the UK’s biggest art robbery ever.

The PM had described her term in office as blighted; no-one could disagree. Handed the poisoned chalice after a Brexit referendum, she lost her majority in an ill-advised general election, presided over failed Brexit talks and was criticised for ignoring a major tower block fire. With Brexit looming, the Windsor Castle debacle and acts of terror causing deaths across the country, she wonders what else could possibly go wrong.

If the PM is lucky, the fire damage to the castle will prove to be minimal, the thieves will be caught, the paintings returned. But this PM isn’t lucky. She isn’t even close to being lucky.

Five years in the writing, this new J Jackson Bentley novel has everything - and a bit more!
