Set against the backdrop of the Suez Crisis and the suppression of the Hungarian uprising by the Soviets, A Willing Victim is a compelling thriller rooted in an uncertain world.

London, November, 1956.

DI Ted Stratton is tasked with investigating the murder of Jeremy Lloyd, a strange young man with a taste for esoteric religion. Stratton's enquiries lead him to Suffolk, where the mysterious Mr Roth has founded a Foundation for Spiritual Understanding.

Apparently Lloyd had believed himself marked out for great things. But at the Foundation, Stratton meets twelve-year-old Michael who is proclaimed as the next incarnation in a long line of spiritual leaders that stretches back to Christ and Buddha. He is rumoured amongst Roth's disciples to have been immaculately conceived, but the woman who is said to be his mother, and whose photograph was cherished by Lloyd, has disappeared.

When a woman's body is found in woods nearby, Stratton initially assumes he has found "the mother", but the reality turns out to be far stranger and far more terrifying...
