Having just seen off a libel case, UK government minister Peter Laurence faces a pair of family scandals. Could the embarrassment derail his political career?

Promoted to justice minister, Peter deals with a prison riot, an angry daughter, and alarming contacts from a stranger. Meanwhile, an unknown threat looms abroad.

Peter is the defendant at the family dinner table. As friends, family, employees, and even a dead person turn against him, he follows his motto: “keep moving forward.”

With the prime minister in trouble, Peter makes a shocking announcement to the nation. Is this the end for him or the start of something new?
