Hart was not a commentator watching from the sidelines.
She was a former crime journalist and Private Investigator with files, tapes, documents and first-hand knowledge. She was also a single mother trying to protect her son, her home, her sanity and her name while powerful men moved around her as if she were a useful object, not a woman with a voice.
At the centre of this exposé is the group Hart calls The Pelham Set: Mr Grey, Mr Brown, Mr Green and the other colour-coded players in a high-society drama of money, evidence, influence and erasure.
Hart alleges that an attempt was made to build a case, control a story, take down the Daily Mail and its owner, Lord Rothermere, while using Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex, Baroness Doreen Lawrence and other high-profile figures as the public face of a far darker game.
Threatened, burglarised, pressured, and visited by Met Police officers sent to her door to ask whether she had been raped and hospitalised, Hart finally breaks her silence.
This is not a polite media memoir.
It is the story of a woman who says she was treated as evidence, not as a person.
A source.
A witness.
A Private Investigator.
A single mother.
A problem.
Protected by recordings, documents, her own filming and evidence held securely away from her home, Hart now tells the story in her own name, despite the risk to her physical safety and that of her family.
Because some stories are not merely reported.
They have to be survived.
Christine Joanna Hart is a Sunday Times bestselling author, former Fleet Street journalist and Private Investigator.
Her memoir, Searching for Daddy, was published by Hodder & Stoughton and became a Sunday Times bestseller. She has written for the Daily Mail and The Sunday Times, with bylines covering crime, family, secrecy and survival, and has appeared on GMTV, BBC World Service and other broadcast media.
Over a career spanning journalism and private investigation, Hart has dealt with serial killers, press scandals, Northern Ireland sources, bullying, family secrets and the machinery of power. She later retrained as a psychotherapist and founded The Hart Practice.
She writes at the borderlands of crime, psychology, class, violence, secrecy and the stories powerful people would rather women did not tell.
