Synopsis
It's the year 2011. The Party in power, the New Project Party, is on a moral revival campaign and Selwyn Knox, the recently appointed minister for the Department for Society, is at its helm. He has selected the team very carefully, and they had better do as they're told, and get down to administering morality. Meanwhile, back at Downing Street, the Prime Minister is suffering a few smears of his own, and his right hand man must quickly dispatch an official to Cambridge to "rescue data" and hunt down the man behind the allegations.

From AudioFile
It's 2011 in Britain. There's a Department of Driverless Vehicles, an outbreak of a contagious genetically engineered crop-borne disease, and the country is mired in the MEWs, Middle Eastern Wars. Hundreds of British soldiers are dying each month. Selwyn Knox is minister of the new Department of Society. He's on a mission to wipe out immorality in Britain, beginning with issuing parenting licenses. Voicing a range of emotions, including fear and rage at the moral superiority of Selwyn, Anton Lesser is superb at controlling pace and suspense. An excellent performance.
