★★★★★ "DC Alden is the best thriller writer I've read in years."
British Prime Minister Gabriel Bryce lies injured in hospital, a survivor of the car bomb that has wiped out his cabinet and thrown the country into chaos.
Elsewhere, another IED destroys Britain’s biggest mosque, slaughtering hundreds. Framed for the atrocity, former soldier Danny Whelan goes on the run, now Europe’s most wanted man.
The plot is underway, the target Britain itself.
As the dead are buried and a new government takes power, both Bryce and Whelan realise they have become pawns in a vast conspiracy, one that intends to crush a rebellious Britain and throw open the gates of Europe.
And if they are to survive the coup, Bryce and Whelan must stay one step ahead of their enemies, led by a ruthless British politician determined to see them both dead…
And Britain transformed for all time.
