About this product

Product Information

The examination of one of the most mysterious episodes in recent British political history by a renowned investigative journalist. PAPERBACK EDITION INCLUDES AN AFTERWORD WITH NEW INFORMATION ON THE KELLY CASE. A DAILY TELEGRAPH BOOK OF THE YEAR. 'A compelling, authoritative insight into possibly the most controversial death in Britain this century' The Observer . 'Goslett's like Poirot; he asks questions ... Spooky and scary' Evening Standard . 'Masterful ... This book made me proud of my trade as a journalist' Daily Mail . 'This searing excavation of the mysterious death of Dr David Kelly is investigative journalism at its best. It is brave, relentless, dazzlingly revealing' Peter Oborne . In March 2003 British forces invaded Iraq after Tony Blair said the country could deploy weapons of mass destruction at 45 minutes' notice. A few months later, government scientist Dr David Kelly was unmasked by Blair's officials as the assumed source of a BBC news report challenging this claim. Within days, Dr Kelly was found dead in a wood near his home. Blair immediately convened the controversial Hutton Inquiry, which concluded Dr Kelly committed suicide. Yet key questions remain: could Dr Kelly really have taken his life in the manner declared? And why did Blair's government derail the coroner's inquest into Dr Kelly's death? In this meticulous account, award-winning journalist Miles Goslett shows why we should be sceptical of the official story of what happened in that desperate summer of 2003.

  • Good title for a good book.

    Compelling is right. I have always thought it was a whitewash and dr Kelly was murdered at another location and moved to where it was supposedly discovered. There should be an inquest and Blair and Campbell jailed. Why did they have the disclosure of Hutton be kept sealed for 70 years, because most people would be dead before it could be seen. STINKS.

  • So what really happened?

    This is an excellent book. Thoroughly researched. I have always had my doubts about the Death of David Kelly and this confirms them. An excellent book. Unlikely to be in Tony Blair's bookcase.

  • Compelling read

    I have followed this tragic case from the beginning. The book is compelling. The author has really looked at every facet of the case with witnesses,times, dates etc. I hope it will re open the case and overturn the suicide verdict.

  • An amazing feat of research brilliantly presented.

    A brilliant work of research engagingly written. I'm no conspiracy theorist but I couldn't put it down! Raises so many questions. Recommended!

  • Lying politicians and authorities

    It is showing just how corrupt our "leaders/liars" can be when dealing with the prospect of their statements being proved as lies, and just how the lies took our troops into a unnecessary and unjustified war.
