Description
A violent rebellion erupts in London's middle classes, targeting the comforts and conventions of civic responsibility. Psychologist David Markham's investigation into his ex-wife's death leads him to a shadowy group based at Chelsea Marina. As Markham delves deeper, he becomes embroiled in a campaign that spirals out of control, questioning every certainty in his life. The boundaries between truth and chaos are blurred as the docile middle classes are roused to anger and violence. Panic grips the capital as the cornerstones of middle England become targets, leaving Markham to confront the darker aspects of his own world.
