An American military plane crashes on a remote mountainside and it falls to a small group of Air Force crash investigators to find out why it came down and what has become of the mysterious, lethal cargo it was transporting. However nothing is quite as it first appeared and the situation rapidly gets out of control. The fall-out from the crash proves to have a longer reach than the civilians, politicians and generals involved can possibly imagine. Major Peter Dalton and his group must use all of their experience, grit and intelligence to figure out what has happened and how to curtail the unfolding crisis. Mere Anarchy is a fast moving, violent and gritty sci-fi thriller, in the tradition of the likes of Stephen King and George RR Martin.
