Sumo - Lord K2
Sumo offers a unique behind-the-scenes view into the secret and fascinating world of sumo, a living breathing showcase of ancient Japan.
A man stands at the centre of a maze, two dead bodies at his feet, a weapon lying nearby. As footsteps rush towards him through the extensive grounds of an imposing private estate somewhere in the south-east of England, he has no idea what he will say… Five weeks earlier, newly-elected Labour MP Tom Cavendish-Smyth is drawn into a dangerous liaison with the financier wife of an old friend, eminent medical specialist Ralph Purbright. But as Ralph entangles himself with Tom''s aristocratic wife Olivia, the daughter of a wealthy and influential landowner, it becomes clear that these affairs are anything but private indulgences. They are the gateway to a world of political intrigue, deception and conspiracy, one that reaches the highest levels of government. As ambitious local journalist Alex Nowak begins uncovering corruption at the heart of power, Tom finds himself ensnared in a desperate scheme to salvage Prime Minister David Marchant''s reputation. But in a game where loyalty is a mirage and trust is a weapon, the outcome is anything but certain. Taut, layered and full of shocking twists, Maze is a gripping political thriller where love, power and betrayal collide, with explosive consequences.
