Requiem for a Spy Philip Garrard

The 'brexit' vote has divided the country, resulted in civil unrest and paralysed the economy. There is a plea for an alternative kind of government ... one that is stronger, fairer and respected. The divisions in society are apparent everywhere - within communities, families and the political elite, and the UK is on the verge of collapse. From afar a superpower looks on with interest and prepares for a cyber attack with a view to crippling all systems and taking over the running of the country. However, MI6, in anticipation of such a strike, tasks agent Gabriel Swift, along with friends, to dismantle their systems before they can destroy the UK's infrastructure. A daring raid is organised but who, in this world of counter espionage, can be trusted ... Follow the 'trials and tribulations' of Swift as he tackles contract killers, the opposite sex and the establishment itself as he attempts the impossible in this dark comedic fictional spy thriller.
