A time of terror

A political thriller set in London follows Marcus White, whose father's prosecution for alleged treason spurs him into confrontation with a rising revolutionary league. The plot traces mounting conspiracies and courtroom struggles that give way to organized violence: bombings, arson, mass riots, the capture of judges, and naval engagements, all unfolding amid public panic and contentious politics. Interweaving investigations, personal vendettas, and public demonstrations, the narrative examines how ideological fervor and private grievances drive collective upheaval and force a grim reckoning between insurgent violence and established institutions.
