Madam, - Rumour has it that publishers are vying for the rights of an explosive political thriller likely to be an Irish bestseller in 2008. The name of the writer is a well guarded secret, but he or she reportedly has had unrivalled access to centres of power and influence. The working title is said to be "PS, I Hate You!" Readers are asked to guess the name of the author. Answers in a plain brown envelope. - Yours, etc,
