Cleo Watson has spent her life in politics. Latterly, working with Boris Johnson and Dominic Cummings. Her first novel, Whips, is a gripping political novel following the stories of three young women who arrive in Westminster from very different backgrounds and who have a very front-row seat as they watch a Prime Minister lose an incredibly important European vote and the commencement of a leadership contest. A rollercoaster romp through British politics in the run up to Brexit, written by someone very close to the action at the time.

What she finds are the harsh realities of farming life, a group of people who have no interest in which magazines she's been in or who her famous ex was - and a hunky dairy farmer. However, just as she's finding roots in rural living and sets to rally together with her new community against developers on the land, an old flame comes back into the frame, and with him a host of questions about her old life...
