Meanwhile the Anti-Subversion and Terrorism Unit (ASTU) move into action to investigate a bold terrorist attack. Nelson and his protégé Melissa lead the investigation for ASTU, but what should be an exemplary investigation soon runs into difficulties and dangers. While ASTU hunt the perpetrators of the crime, the investigation and the attack becomes a game of opportunity for more than one side. In the world of Hannover everything and everyone is connected, no one will leave the Hannover Game untouched. Mark J Diez
