Politicians are mostly villains, right? Isn't it astonishing how so many snake-oil sellers, log-rollers, fornicators and footpads manage everywhere to worm their way into elected office?
But let's dream a little. Suppose one of these rogues suddenly felt compelled to start behaving as an honest, decent human being: what then?
The question hardly seems relevant to the Right Honourable George Gulliver, Her Majesty's Secretary of State for Defense. When he isn't scheming to stab his Prime Minister in the back, he's dreaming of his next foray into the arms of his mistress.
But one night George is plunged headlong into an unforgettable moment of horror; and in that terrifying instant, his life is transformed. Henceforth, he has no choice but to do good. No matter what the cost.
Sadly, the task is harder than George could ever have imagined. In his efforts to behave well, he stumbles ever deeper into personal and political disaster until life itself is in the balance....
On one level, Seeing the Light is a compelling political thriller, with an ingenious twist in the tail. But it is also a thought-provoking examination of the possibilities of human redemption. George's story is told with warmth, wit, and an enormous sense of fun. Read it. This is one novel you'll never forget.
