Description:

A successful author and Liberal MP with a loving and benevolent wife, Richard Remington appears to be a man to envy. But underneath his superficial contentment, he is far from happy with either his marriage or the politics of his party. *The New Machiavelli* describes the disarray into which his life is thrown when he meets the young and beautiful Isabel Rivers and becomes tormented by desire.
