Great Britain is transfixed by the latest disaster in national political life - the fourth General Election in a decade! This time the stakes are the highest ever, with parties polarised and extremists on very side. No more so that right-winger Jerry Garage (pronounced 'Gah-Raj') who is leading the attack on not only the existing government, but the possible one to come, as well. The Security Services are panicked, and activate all active and retired personnel (such as Mickey) to try and avoid the complete breakdown of Law and Order. Every meeting, every rally, every appearence on television of the candidates provokes and outcry. There are marches in the streets, banners waving, slogans chanting. Where has the quiet, peaceful country gone? It is being smothered in layers of hype, false stories and Fake News. Captain Gibson, boss of Regional Office in the North West of England, is forced to throw all his resources at the problem, both on land and at sea. For once, he has the talents of his trust protege Mickey and his girlfriend Melia working at the same time. Unfortunately, there are at opposite ends of the realm, and both feel the strain of working alone for once. They long to get back together. But that may only happen when the emergency is over - and no one seems sure when that may be.

Autorenporträt
Mickey is from Manchester, and he's a Tough Guy. My name is Mike Scantlebury and I'm the author. I'm not a tough guy, I'm more like an opal, small and perfectly formed. But - more bad news, and worse than that - I'm from Bristol, which is a small, historic port in South West England. It's only claim to fame is that people sailed from there in the 15th century and discovered America. Oh, yeah, well, that is quite a Big Thing, isn't it? But that's the deceptive part of the whole story. I live in Salford now, across the river from the big Northern city of Manchester. My 'Manchester' is not like anyone else's, and if you think you know Manchester - maybe from reading other books set there, or seeing the place on films or on television - I need you to know that. Things aren't always what they seem, are they? Luckily, Manchester has Mickey, which means, fortunately for them, that whenever something bad happens, (and it does, regularly), they've got someone who is going to come in, do The Right Thing, and clear up the mess. Not every town can say that now, can they?
