This is a really daft request but someone out there must be able to help. Last summer I picked up a book in Waterstones and read the back. It looked interesting but I passed it over. I now want to read it. Sadly I dont know the author or title. I know, Im a daft prick. It had quite a memorable cover which simply showed the door of 10 Downing St. It was a political thriller with a supposedly twist at the end. (It was NOT the book Cheri Blair wrote about pime-ministers wives)
Anyone got a clue?

Was it the House of Cards (or one of them)?

If it is that book i didn't like it too contrived although I supposed for a not too taxing summer read it's ok.

I liked Number 10, but I don't think it can be that, it wasn't much of a political thriller, was it?

Nah, it wasnt No.10. I love Sue Townsend but that really wasn't one of her best.
I despair at ever finding this book. Im pretty sure there was some kind of bent/queer/ twist implied in the blurb which sort of grabbed my interest but not long enough to make me buy it there and then. I am one of those people who dithers over a simple cheap purchase and then lives with the regret when its no longer available. Or, in short, a twat.
