Description

A political warfare thriller. The Russian Bear is stirring. After years of economic sanctions, isolation and rejection by the West, Russia is on the offensive. The Crimea is annexed and the West does nothing. Russian militias have occupied Eastern Ukraine while NATO, paralysed and impotent, looks on. Supported by Russia, a brutal proxy war continues in Syria driving millions of refugees towards Western Europe, destabilising country after country. The very fabric of the European Union faces collapse as soldiers string barbed wire across the continent. In Britain, the political classes are under attack. Dissidents who dare to speak out are murdered. Helped by unseen forces, unilateral disarmers are gaining power in Westminster. This is a different kind of war . . . a new cold war . . . where there is no front line, no rules of engagement and more treachery than ever imagined. "If elected I will never, under any circumstances, use a nuclear weapon," promises the leader of the British Opposition and the people love him for it. One person, journalist David Barnett, is a pawn, an unwilling victim of Russia's evil plan to win the peace . . . the key to what is going on. Barnett is The Unexploded Man.
