The fast-paced deadly conclusion to the Secret City trilogy.
Once feared newshound Harry Dunkley has fallen, disgraced and dispirited at having failed to reveal the existence of the Alliance, a cabal of mandarins pulling the strings of power in Canberra.
But new purpose is in the air.
As the Australian government teeters between fear and greed - wanting US security and Chinese cash - Dunkley receives aid from an unlikely band of adversaries bound by a shared hunger for justice and revenge, and looks at his enemies afresh: resurrected Labor powerhouse Catriona Bailey and the hitherto untouchable Defence chief, Sir Jack Webster, leader of the sinister Alliance, who has played Dunkley at every turn.
Yet there is a chink in Webster that might just bring him down.
