The Ghost

â??The moment I heard how McAra died I should have walked away. I can see that now. I should have said, â??Rick, Iâ??m sorry, this isnâ??t for me, I donâ??t like the sound of it,â? finished my drink and left. But he was such a good storyteller, Rick â?? I often thought he should have been the writer and I the agent â?? that once heâ??d started talking there was never any question I wouldnâ??t listen, and by the time he had finished, I was done for.â?? Adam Lang has been Britainâ??s longest serving â?? and most controversial â?? prime minister of the last half century. And now that heâ??s left office, heâ??s accepted one of historyâ??s largest cash advances to compose a tell-all (or at least, tell-some) memoir of his life and years of power. As pressure mounts for Lang to complete this magnum opus, he hires a professional ghostwriter to finish the book. As he sets to work, the ghostwriter discovers many more secrets than Lang intends to reveal, secrets with the power to alter world politics, secrets with the power to kill. Set in America, on Marthaâ??s Vineyard, IThe Ghost/I is Harrisâ??s finest foray into political fiction since IArchangel/I and brings the reader face to face with some of the biggest issues of our time. The result is a gripping and genuinely thrilling read.
