When an African Warlord is arrested in Brussels, a rogue nuclear scientist that was previously assumed dead resurfaces in Venezuela. Just as Captain Paddy Trimble is about to begin his training as a clandestine lawyer, his former career is about to catch up with him.

After several high profile murders, with trust appearing to be the rarest of commodities in the corridors of power, Paddy is tasked by a secretive and influential UK parliamentary committee to discover the source of an unknown threat. In doing so, Paddy must learn to navigate the dark undercurrents of an established web of institutional corruption.
