The State Within
Overview
Action-packed conspiracy thriller set over 17 frantic days in the upper echelons of UK/US diplomacy. Sir Mark Brydon, British Ambassador to Washington, struggles to pacify a hawkish US government when a British plane is downed by a homegrown terrorist on American soil. Subsequent developments suggest a link between the bomber, big business in both the UK and US, and the rocky political situation in the state of Tyrgyztan. As the situation spirals out of control, who can Brydon trust?
