This book finds our heroes Detective Chief Inspector Frank Farren and Detective Sergeant Ilse Van Delft investigating the death of Abdul Agha, a fanatical Islamic cleric; this event is just the first cloud on the horizon, a vicious storm is gathering. Two well-educated and wealthy men are convinced that democracy is dying, skilled in chemical and biological weaponry; they engineer a confrontation with Islam. These men are backed by others within the police and armed forces, disillusioned with democracy, wanting to see a fresh start. Sir Winston Churchill said 'It has been said that democracy is the worst form of government except all the others that have been tried.' Perhaps the time has come to challenge that view, a time for a Fresh Start.
