A number of seemingly unrelated events culminate in an explosion in London's Camden Lock on one of the busiest days of the year. The number of dead and injured is high and it appears that there are many possible culprits.

A tapestry of lies and deceit wait around every corner, and he soon finds that he has few allies in his quest.
