155 pages ; 20 cm, MODERN & CONTEMPORARY FICTION (POST C 1945). In 2020, Britain is at breaking point, society on a knife-edge. Years of economic turmoil, bitter debates over immigration, and anger at the political elites have created a maelstrom, a dis-United Kingdom. The country is a bomb waiting to explode...and then it does. A major terrorist attack by homegrown Islamic extremists plunges society over the precipice into collective madness, with the forces of intolerance at war with the liberal mainstream. The battle is on for the soul of Britain. This provocative literary thriller cleverly lays bare the true state of our nation in the 21st century with an all-too-plausible 'what if?' scenario. Told from the wildly differing perspectives of a myriad of voices from across the political and social spectrum, it is a parable for our times and a much-needed warning shot across the bows
