explosive political thriller.
Unknown forces launch coordinated bomb attacks across the UK.
Commuter trains explode in multiple cities. Panic spreads. Then comes
the assassination attempt on Prime Minister James Torrence a radical
reformer whose controversial policies have made him enemies in high
places.
Paul Gunter, a bright young intelligence officer on the PM's staff,
suddenly finds himself arrested by MI5 in the middle of the night.
He's accused of being the insider mole who leaked information to the
terrorists. The evidence against him is damning. But Paul knows he's
innocent.
On his way to a holding cell, an unmarked truck rams the police van
carrying him. In the chaos, Paul escapes not knowing who freed him or
why. Now he's on the run from MI5, the police, and the real conspirators
who want him silenced permanently.
There's only one person he can trust: Andrea Holt, the brilliant PA to
Downing Street's Chief of Staff. Andrea has been dismissive of Paul's
romantic interest in her until now. Together, they must use their inside
knowledge of Number Ten's processes to stay alive long enough to
prove Paul's innocence and expose the true mastermind.
But the conspiracy runs deeper than either of them imagined.
Russian organized crime. Middle Eastern terrorists. Young British boys
radicalized on London streets. A fragile government teetering on the
brink. And someone inside Number Ten still pulling the strings.
Will Paul and Andrea survive against vastly superior forces? Will Prime
Minister Torrence and his government endure the shocking revelations?
In a race against time across London's extraordinary cityscape,
suspense, romance, and high-stakes action collide in this explosive
thriller.
