Lord Turner and Mel Doyle are running a covert department that is deniable by the UK government. If they are caught they will be disowned and their careers ended in disgrace. The department is known only as SF02 and the operators have a license to kill. A terrorist cell is operating out of London and have set off bombs in the London Underground system. Doyle is tasked with finding them and killing them. He is judge, jury and executioner. The problem is there is another plot to kill members of parliament and Lord Turner's name is on the list. Doyle needs to find the terrorists in this cell before they get Turner. But that could compromise the other operation. They have to decide which one takes priority before it is too late.

Recent acts of terror have exploded the myth that Indian youth is insulated from the global terrorism phenomenon and had little time for extremism. The communal riots post the 1992 incident, the rise of the Students Islamic Movement of India (SIMI) and the mutation of a section of aspiring Muslim youth into terrorists with the help of forces across the border. The story of home-grown jihadists would have been skewed had it not been for the testimonies of David Coleman Headley and Sarfaraz Nawaz on the involvement of the Pakistan Inter-Services Intelligence, top Lashkar-e-Taiba leadership, the Al Qaida and the Karachi project, whose demon child the Indian Mujahideen is. This book is the first-ever attempt to link up jihadists all over India and trace their linkages with terrorists based in countries like Pakistan, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, United Arab Emirates, Oman, Yemen and Saudi Arabia.
