Sex, lies, strategy, deceit - it's a way of life for Martina Miller and Andy Fletcher, the candidates standing for election in the fictional country seat of Blenheim.
The spin doctors and pollsters surrounding the candidates may think they know them better than they know themselves, but politics is always full of surprises . . . and secrets. And the secret at the heart of The Spin is one that everyone is trying to discover, but no one will believe is possible.
In his third novel, respected social researcher Hugh Mackay takes us into the dark space between the public and private lives of politicians. The Spin is a brutally honest and unforgiving fable of the triumphs and costs of political life, a gripping tale of ambition, greed and cunning which is a startling reflection on the way we live now.
