Join us for a thought provoking evening with retired police negotiator John Sutherland, where he’ll be talking candidly about his policing career, his major breakdown which led to early retirement, and of course his new book The Fallen.

ARE YOU READY TO SAVE A LIFE?

Why her? Becca Palmer has just been fired from her job as assistant to Simon Jones – the Policing Minister at the House of Commons. But Becca claims Simon was more than her boss, that she is in love with him.

Why here? So when a heartbroken Becca leaves Parliament for the final time, she decides to take matters into her own hands and head to Westminster Bridge to take her own life. Which is where hostage negotiator Alex Lewis meets her, to talk her down off the ledge.

Why now? It’s clear Becca knows something about the Policing Minister that she shouldn’t. Something that could get him in serious trouble if it were to come out.

But can Alex save Becca and get to the bottom of a conspiracy that goes deep inside the highest levels of government – before it’s too late?
