Northern Ireland, 2018, is a land shackled to its past. Two decades after the signing of The Agreement, ancient grudges simmer beneath a fragile peace. Brexit has reignited old hatreds, fracturing communities and burying hope for unity under waves of distrust. But out of the chaos a young hero emerges.Finn Donnelly is a brilliant and idealistic computer hacker with nothing left to lose. Raised on stories of his mother’s failed crusade for a united Ireland, he has vowed to finish what she started.With Brexit crippling Britain’s resolve, Finn seizes his moment and launches a cyber war aimed at disabling its financial spine and driving the nation to its knees. His focus is to force Northern Ireland into a repatriation with the Republic in the South, launching a soft war to squeeze the once great empire to bursting point.His weapon is a labyrinth of code, and is aided by Tilly, a street-smart ex-police chief who has a foot dangerously in each camp. As Finn unleashes The Glorious Day masterplan, he forces bank collapses, blackouts, paralyses transport and implements power cuts across the United Kingdom.Britain’s elite Cyber Crime Unit is closing in, and Finn must win the game of cat and mouse if he is to evade detection. As governments teeter and cities spiral into panic, Finn’s crusade becomes a deadly gambit. The walls are quickly closing in - one wrong move, and he will perish a prison cell for the rest of his life.In a pulsating game of duplicity and subterfuge, Finn races to complete his dangerous and defiant plan before the machine of the British Empire closes in.Will he become the brave new hero, Ireland has been searching for?Will his name be written into the history books of future generations and etched into the rugged rockface of an Ireland, finally united?The future of two nations hangs by a thread, and he’s just cut it.
