A young girl orphaned when a hit and run driver kills her mother, a retired detective haunted by an unsolved murder, a recently divorced woman, a young family whose dreams are shattered when the bank forecloses on their business, a grieving husband, a lifelong criminal living on borrowed time and a young businessman who has bought a hotel in the Cotswolds.Nine people brought together by the hand of fate.But even fate has its own limits, a line that even it is unable to cross and if any of the nine are unable to spot the clues, swallow their pride or follow their hearts; their lives will remain unchanged forever.Set in the run up to Christmas, Follow the Leaders is a tale of good versus evil, the age old battle of the hearts and the realisation that blood really is thicker than water.So, do you believe in fate?
