Government sources say a Serbian terrorist ring
has been smashed, averting the risk of major terror attacks
across the country.
|
Agent Tom Quinn is stuck outside his security sealed house.
Girlfriend Ellie and her daughter Maisie are inside, with
his booby-trapped laptop. The timer on the detonator reaches
zero, and a huge explosion rips through a London street. Another
London street. Tom, Ellie and Maisie are all OK. The detonator
failed, but the same group who doctored Tom鈥檚 computer
have used it as distraction for a car bomb attack on the Secretary
of State for Northern Ireland . The Minister is dead. Ellie
decides to end her relationship with Tom. |
Shortly afterwards there鈥檚 another explosion at
a top secret military base. 听Although the attacks initially
appear connected, it鈥檚 soon clear the second is the
work of known terrorist, the Serbian Miroslav Gradic. Gradic
is getting his information from a sympathiser planted in the
Serbian Embassy, Rado. He鈥檚 their route to Gradic. |
A film buff, Rado regularly rents videos. Zoe is set up
in a video shop business, ably assisted by new recruit, Sam.
She soon wins Rado over with her feminine whiles and excellent
range of European cinema. He鈥檚 sending coded messages
to Gradic via classified ads in the Evening Standard. The
team needs to know what those messages are, so Zoe goes into
the breach with a pair of bugged cufflinks and a control document.
|
The plan works beautifully. The team realise with horror
that Gradic has found out when and where a secret COBRA meeting
is taking place. These meetings gather together all the major
military leaders of the country. The session is moved at the
last minute, and only Tom waits to apprehend Gradic. |
He was due to be sent to the Hague for a war crimes trial,
which looked like a cushy number for a man who had caused
such misery and destruction. Harry manipulated his papers,
and sent him to Egypt , with records showing him as a paedophile.
Gradic would get a fitting punishment. |
