1985, and the peace process in Northern Ireland seems lights years away. The mysterious Martin Keogh saves a Protestant girl from a mugging the Belfast streets and is accepted into the inner sanctum of a breakaway Loyalist faction, who are plotting an audacious gold bullion heist in the English Lake District, followed by an escape by sea back to Ireland. But greed can foil the best laid plans. In 1995 the peace in Northern Ireland masks a menacing threat; the head of the Prime Minister's 'secret army' has just been alerted by his opposite number in the USA that a dangerous Irish prisoner has, with the help of the Mafia, escaped from a top-security prison. He and his accomplices are believed to be en route to Ireland. If the information is reliable, their plans could blow the peace plan out of the water. There's only one man who can avert the disaster - Sean Dillon.
