The Loyal Servant
Eva Hudson
A Very British Political Thriller
Publisher: Two Pies Press

This book was the winner of the inaugural Lucy Cavendish College (University of Cambridge) Fiction Prize in 2011. The prize is awarded to an unpublished female author for a novel that "marries literary merit with unputdownability."

It's late. In Westminster a well-respected government minister lies dead in the Department of Education, scattered pills and whiskey bottle on his desk.

Low ranking civil servant Caroline Barber discovers his body, but is convinced the minister wouldn't take his own life. When Martin Fox's death is quickly forgotten by the press, Caroline fears the real reason for his death will be buried with him.

She embarks on a mission to uncover the truth, recruiting hard-nosed investigative journalist Angela Tate. But Tate only agrees to help in exchange for confidential government information.

Torn between her quest for justice and her loyalty to the department, Caroline reluctantly turns whistleblower, putting not just her career at risk, but the safety of her family.

As her enemies get closer to discovering her identity, she unearths a scandal powerful enough to bring down the government. But will she get the chance to expose the corruption before she is silenced permanently?
