The Caratacus Reincarnation

Following a disastrous Marxist government, Britain is on the verge of ruin whilst a resurgent Russia prepares to regain the territories lost when the old Soviet Union collapsed.

In the cold grey waters of the North Sea, a small independent oil company makes a major discovery which could change the fortunes of Great Britain. The discovery is called the Caratacus Field, but before the benefits can be realised, it has to be developed. Two rival offshore construction companies vie for the work leading to sabotage and death on the high seas and a worldwide manhunt for those responsible.

Russia knows the risk to its plans should the revenue from the Caratacus Field save the United Kingdom from debt default and humiliation. It is determined to stop or delay the development until it is able to enact its plans to invade Europe.

The Caratacus Reincarnation looks towards a frightening and all too feasible future; but will the new British government or Russia come out on top?
