Jack Ritchie has created one of the most enjoyable legal thrillers of the decade. In David Ross we have a character we can believe in, a man we want to share adverntures with, a hero who is a simple, low born, honourable and remarkable. Sleaze is brilliant tightly spun story of politcal skulduggery, murder, mystery and redemption. Why did the wife of Charles Wilson MP denigrate him so publically? When she is found with a blood stained poker in her hand wandering the streets of London after he had been bludgeoned to death how can anyone belive that she is innocent? David Ross takes on her case and in the process challenges the pillars of the community. Intrigue piles on top of desperation and the plot races to the final thrilling court scene where all is revealed.
