DCI Rachel Carey is living a lonely, paranoid existence, struggling with thwarted ambitions while seconded to Counter Terrorism Command's 'mapping' department. She's officially joined the highly classified Correction team, but has yet to be truly let in.

Carey's investigation brings her into the orbit of hotshot politician Isaac Turner MP as the case's links to national and international security start to emerge. Something is very wrong, but can she work out what before Britain's security is irrevocably compromised?
And which of her colleagues can she trust?
