I am delighted to announce I have struck a deal with Bath Publishing’s new-ish Cinto imprint to write another book about the Post Office scandal. This one will be called The Great Post Office Cover-Up.

You can pre-buy it here:

Cinto will be printing both a £15+P&P signed limited edition hardback and a £10+P&P paperback. Putting your money down now will help support an independent publisher. As before 5% of my income from the book and 5% of Cinto’s income from the book will be donated to the Horizon Scandal Fund.

We will aim to get The Great Post Office Cover-Up published within weeks of the Post Office Horizon IT inquiry final report, which could drop any time next year. If you can buy a copy before publication date I would be enormously grateful.

“Bath Publishing, under its Cinto Press imprint, has signed Nick Wallis for a second book on the Post Office scandal. The Great Post Office Cover-Up reworks and updates the story using the fresh evidence unearthed by the Inquiry from those working inside the Post Office, Fujitsu and government. Nick bolsters this with his own new investigations and interviews with some of the key players and victims, more of whom came to light after the ITV drama, Mr Bates vs
The Post Office was aired. The Great Post Office Cover-Up will be published in 2025 soon after the Inquiry reports. A
companion piece to its predecessor, The Great Post Office Scandal, The Great Post Office Cover-Up will become the definitive account of one of the darkest episodes in modern British history.

Commenting, Nick said: “Since writing The Great Post Office Scandal I’ve continued to follow every twist and turn of this story which just kept getting bigger. Over the last three years we’ve learned so much about what was really going on inside the Post Office, Fujitsu, government and parliament. Senior managers delayed and denied Subpostmasters justice, covering up one of the greatest miscarriages of justice in history. I am delighted to be working with the
team at Cinto Press again to make sure the full truth is published.”

Publisher David Chaplin said: “So much has happened since we published the original book in November 2021, not least the extraordinary reaction of the public to the ITV drama, Mr Bates vs The Post Office. We are honoured to be involved in what we think will become a landmark book about this tragic episode.”

Bath Publishing has been active for twenty years and under its new Cinto Press imprint has extended their list to mainstream fiction and non-fiction titles, mostly with a legal twist.
