Cleavage

Cleo Watson has spent her life in politics. Latterly, working with Boris Johnson and Dominic Cummings. Her first novel, Whips, is a gripping political novel following the stories of three young women who arrive in Westminster from very different backgrounds and who have a very front-row seat as they watch a Prime Minister lose an incredibly important European vote and the commencement of a leadership contest. A rollercoaster romp through British politics in the run up to Brexit, written by someone very close to the action at the time.

'Watson's characters, however minor, spring consistently to life. Cleavage is both completely ridiculous and completely believable' Kara Kennedy, The Telegraph
'Cleavage proves just as much of a riot as Whips... A perfect summer read' City A.M.
'I thoroughly enjoyed Whips [and] this second book is equally as riotous a romp... I raced through it' Sara Lawrence, Daily Mail
'A pacy read perfect for this summer' Francesca Peacock, Mail on Sunday
'It's more fun and wild than you could hope' Telegraph, 'Best Novels of 2024 So Far'
'Anyone interested in politics and scandals will love this' Prudence Wade, Press Association
'Cleavage keeps abreast of the times by mirroring recent UK events... Anyone into politics - and scandals - will love reading how the urge for power changes people for the worst' -- Alan Jones Sunday Express
