John Young

Lost Leaders John Young

In the middle of an ordinary day the Prime Minister disappears. He has become disillusioned with a life where good intentions are crushed by the relentless struggle of modern politics. Where will he find solace? In the arms of the beautiful socialite, Magdalena? Within the anonymous walls of a monastery? Can he find a new vision with which to return to office? His absence sends shockwaves through society as prominent public figures scrabble for meaning. In a country beset by war, the threat of terrorism and social decay, the path to salvation must be sought. Every individual must reassess their own lives and strive for rebirth. In this thought-provoking and often philosophical novel we consider a man in crisis and are forced to ask what we should really expect from our leaders.
