WITH PREJUDICE
Roger A Price
Works of: Fiction
1984,
The Provisional IRA have attempted to kill the British Prime Minister and her Cabinet in Brighton.
Margaret Thatcher instructs the security services and Special Forces to work together to take the fight to the terrorists.
Red Troop of the SAS is formed. Led strategically and for intelligence by MI5’s Bertram Hastings, an unconventionally, but excellent field operative.
Operationally, the Troop is led by Captain Vernon Jackson who has as many detractors as supporters, but he gets things done. Assisted by a team of seasoned soldiers, Vernon gets to work.
He is tasked to identify and stop a Provisional IRA hardliner, Brendan Lynch, who is hell-bent on igniting a war to destroy all Loyalist Terrorists, and drive all Protestants out of Ulster.
A series of attacks take place, each more audacious than the last, with the final target so horrific, Lynch does not inform the IRA, for fear that they would try to stop him.
Hastings’s ace-in-pack is a top-level informer deep inside the Provisional IRA. Lynch discovers this and takes desperate measures to ‘out the tout’.
It becomes a race-against-time to stop Lynch and protect the informant.
