Product Description

Product Description
Why did investigative journalist Jamie Maxden die? The coroner says it was suicide. The case is closed. Only one man fights to re-open it. Will Applewood is sure Jamie was about to expose a scandal that would shame the British food industry. But Will is notorious for his conspiracy theories. No one listens to him. In despair he turns to his barrister, Trish Maguire. Will's campaign takes Trish deep into the countryside, revealing a world that seems quite different from the metropolitan life she knows. But human nature doesn't change - whatever the environment. Cruelty and intimidation can flourish in the ravishing landscape just as they do in the grimmest of inner-city housing estates. Moving between the two, trying to save lives and sanity, inexhaustable Trish is driven into a crusade - both personal and professional - that combines excitement, drama and agonising human tragedy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Intelligent Thriller, 7 Mar 2006
By A Customer
"Keep Me Alive" is a rare thriller that combines high tension with a healthy dose of social comment that is critical to the plot (and therefore essential and un-self-conscious) whilst making the reader think about the world that we are living in. Natasha Cooper juggles the sub-plots perfectly - a David v Goliath courtroom drama, a search for rotten meat producers, a harrowing child abuse case - whilst inserting a couple of neat twists and blind alleys that keep the reader guessing to the end. Trish, the barrister heroine, is a well-drawn character who will, no doubt, be gracing our TV screens in due course. An urban novel that captures the stresses of rural hardship: really quite unusual.

More please.
