Synopsis

A Minor Statistical Adjustment "The numbers didn't add up. Now she's dead. And the man who built the model is the only one who can find out why." Dr. Helen Mercer noticed something wrong with the NHS mortality data. Deaths that should have been outliers were being absorbed into the baseline. Trusts with dangerous outcomes were passing their inspections. Someone was adjusting the statistics-and they were adjusting them very, very carefully. When she died in a locked room three weeks after her final report, the official finding was suicide. But Tom Arkwright, the man who helped design the mortality framework, knows what the numbers are supposed to look like. And these numbers don't work. As he digs deeper, he discovers the model he helped build has been weaponised-turned into a machine for burying inconvenient deaths and discrediting the people who notice them. Now he's on the run from the Ministry he used to work for, racing to expose a conspiracy that stretches from hospital wards to Whitehall. 'A Minor Statistical Adjustment' is a gripping thriller about the weaponisation of data, the cost of institutional silence, and the impossible choice between the truth and everything you've ever believed in.
