    After his father’s death, a young Rupert inherits a small newspaper in 1950s Adelaide. There, he teams up with the paper’s editor to save a man sentenced to hang.

His gamble pays off when the paper helps elect our most ambitious and progressive leader, Gough Whitlam.  But as Rupert gets closer to power, he’ll learn just how far his papers can push the needle.

    Off-the-record lunches, handwritten notes and a bouquet of red roses mark Rupert’s secret friendship with Britain’s most controversial PM, Margaret Thatcher.

With Thatcher’s support, Rupert will pull off his most daring piece of business, and arguably the most cruel.  Paddy pieces together the evidence that binds them together and examines the scars they left behind.

    By the 1990s, Rupert is cemented as one of the world’s most powerful and divisive men, but his unrelenting drive is beginning to take a toll.

Then there is his 30-year marriage to his second wife, Anna Murdoch. One will lift Rupert to new heights of influence; the other will crumble, but not without a parting shot.
