A world of Machiavellian power-play
Minister for the Family Duncan Matlock is caught with his trousers down when the tabloids expose his affair with escort girl and ‘researcher’ Jennifer. The ensuing scandal can only be averted if his traditional Tory wife Flora stands by him. Meek and dutiful she obeys, but underneath her loyal façade Flora has an agenda of her own.
Transforming herself from dowdy wife to sexy vamp, she plays strange sexual games with Duncan while secretly entering his world of Machiavellian power-play. Is she trying to bring down her husband – or the Tory party itself?
We watch enthralled as she dismantles her husband’s career plank by plank, the story twisting and turning to a startling climax.
