'Floating Voter' is an irresistable concoction of murder,politics and highly indiscreet gossip set in Brighton during a Tory Party conference.
This year the conference had been doing particularly badly.To a catalogue of embarrassments including the Young Conservative's brawl at the Hedgehog and Hogshead,Margaret Thatcher's bizarre reappearance from exile and the inexplicable kidnapping of Jeffrey Archer, must now be added the drowned body of a female conference member.Sir Ralph Grunte, target of a deselection conspiracy, certainly has a motive for murder.But so has the randy junior minister Charles Harvey and the diminutive reporter from the True Brit,and even John Major himself was heard to say -
But let us leave MP and amateur sleuth Joshua Morris to solve the puzzle with his characteristic aplomb.
Mixing fictional characters with real political figures,Critchley tells a rollicking tale set against the background of oratory,expense,bonhomie,backstairs plotting and bedroom assignations that make up a typical party conference.
Since April 2013,again in March 2015,and in this year too,the UK Post Office has altered it's Pricing in Proportion template,altering it's prices,weight allowances,dimensions and lowered it's qualifying compensation rates too!
