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?

The Reunion

28 parts Complete

Is it ever a good idea for a once huge pop band to reunite? Particularly if their split was acrimonious, surrounded by lies, challenges and complications? And especially when a quarter of a century has gone by and the group members have carved out completely different (and successful) careers? Thats for you to decide Twenty-five years on, 'Ladies and Gentlemen' are reuniting to raise money for a certain charity close to one of the band member's hearts. Their return to notoriety begins with an explosive interview. Britain's most famous (and notoriously confrontational) political interviewer - who takes no prisoners and was the catalyst behind getting the group together in the first place - sets the scene for a future filled with fireworks and it isn't long before the proverbial can of worms is laid bare for all the world to see. But this time the problems aren't caused by the egos of the rich and famous. Rather there's much more going on backstage...journalists with ulterior motives...heartbreak...arrests...tragedy...mental hospitals...murder...and, eventually, a band member fighting for their life. Dive into this face-paced, chilling and evocative psychological thriller, steeped in mystery and intrigue, with compelling characters, convincing pasts and complicated futures. And be prepared to be hooked
