Sutherland, John,

The fallen. / John Sutherland - London Orion, 2023. - 352 pages ; 24 cm

Becca Palmer has just lost her job as assistant to Simon Jones MP - the highly-regarded policing minister, tipped as a future prime minister. But Becca claims that Simon was more than her boss, that she is in love with him. When a heartbroken Becca leaves the Home Office, she heads to Westminster Bridge, intending to take her own life. Which is where hostage negotiator Alex Lewis meets her. It is his job to try to talk her back from the edge. In the negotiation that follows, Becca suggests that she may know something about the policing minister that she shouldn't. Something that could prompt a serious fall from grace were it to come out. Can Alex save Becca - and get to the bottom of an alleged conspiracy that goes deep inside the highest levels of government - before it's too late?
