From the Publisher
'Razor-sharp and merciless . . . One thing is certain: F.U. will be remembered for much longer than many a real Prime Minister.' - Daily Mail
'A triumphant return ... The action is unflagging, the characterization razor-sharp, the satirical barbs at politics and politicians unfailingly accurate. What a brilliant creation F.U. is.' - Sunday Telegraph
'Thoroughly entertaining. Urquhart is a joy, and the wonderful games he plays have lost none of their attraction.' - The Times
About the Author
Michael Dobbs has carved out a unique niche as the country's leading political thriller writer, with a reputation for always being at the right hand of political controversy. In 1979 he was at Mrs Thatcher's side as she took her first step into Downing Street as Prime Minister, and in 1994 John Major appointed him Deputy Chairman of the Conservative Party. One newspaper described him as 'Westminster's baby-faced hitman'.
