*** Update - reworked chapter order to make the opening more exciting. ***
With a Soviet Spy stalking in the shadows of 1970's England it falls to John and Grace, an average man and woman, to deal with the frightening secret they have uncovered. From the Top Secret tunnels beneath the streets of London they uncover a horrifying truth which puts their lives in danger and puts them on the front line of protecting Britain from the fury of the Soviet Nuclear Arsenal.
Would the Government blow up a major London landmark in the effort to persuade the country to go to war? Or could rogue elements within the Armed Forces be behind the plot? Or could it be the KGB in an effort to destabilise, distract and confuse the British Government in the build up to a nuclear strike?
An ex-police man is also on the case but he's pre-occupied with personal redemption rather than getting to the truth. His own desires take precedence over his professional responsibilities leading to an unexpected confrontation.
Will the British intelligence services catch up in time to prevent the outbreak of World War Three? Will the Soviet spy be caught and arrested before they get the chance to wreak havoc on the British Nation?
Who will uncover John and Grace's involvement first, the Soviet spy, the ex-police officer or the British Security Services? Will John and Grace face death at the hands of the KGB, be hanged for treason against Britain or is there another way out for them? The answer will hinge on who gets to them first!
Danger can be a powerful aphrodisiac but will John and Grace realise they are more than friends or will the threat of nuclear and personal annihilation drive them apart?
