Malcolm Fox and his team from Internal Affairs are back. They've
been sent to Fife to investigate whether fellow cops covered up for
a corrupt colleague, Detective Paul Carter. Carter has been found
guilty of misconduct with his own uncle, also in the force, having
proved to be his nephew's nemesis. But what should be a simple job
is soon complicated by intimations of conspiracy and cover-up - and
a brutal murder, a murder committed with a weapon that should not
even exist. The spiralling investigation takes Fox back in time to
1985, a year of turmoil in British political life. Terrorists
intent on a split between Scotland and the rest of the United
Kingdom were becoming more brazen and ruthless, sending
letter-bombs and poisonous spores to government offices, plotting
kidnaps and murder, and trying to stay one step ahead of the spies
sent to flush them out. Fox has a duty to get at the truth, while
the body count rises, the clock starts ticking, and he fights for
his professional and personal life.
