A scientist they want dead. A minister they want silenced. A conspiracy they want to cover up. A spin machine out of control. When Grace Fry, Minister for Women, receives her 'Woman of the Decade' award at the party conference, she expects to be promoted to the heart of government. On a sudden visit to her local constituency she is forced to discover where the truth starts and the lies end. As the body count rises - is it suicide or murder? How can she keep ahead of the game? And who can she trust?

As usual, she was late, there never seemed enough hours in the day for her small Women's Unit to attack the work she deemed essential. She saw it as attack, for that was her nature. Today, however, the first day of Conference 0010, she was late not because of her own over-packed schedule, but because Ransome Rail had encountered a cow on the line.
