The Tragedy & The Triumph

By Mark Devlin

March 2020: Oxford has been plunged into the dystopian lockdowns "justified" by the Covid-19 "pandemic." Verity Hunter and her friends aren't falling for it; they're too world-weary to buy the lies.

Cabin fever has brought to the surface wounds which have been festering in the family. Verity and Keith's daughter, Hope, has emerged from her battles a fierce truth warrior, and social media influencer.

Verity is on the case when two young children go missing under cover of the lockdowns. Gradually, the terrible truth emerges about a shady, "off the books" laboratory on the edge of town.

As most in society cower in fear, the group which had prevented a cataclysmic disaster 19 years previous wonder what it will ever take for the masses to face up to these outrages.

Max Zeall has a plan - a not entirely "legal" one - but one which might finally restore the justice so desperately needed... and hammer the final nails in the coffin of The Order for good.

But... will everyone last long enough to see it through?

Mark Devlin's third novel - his most soul-searching story yet - brings his "truth fiction" trilogy to an exhilarating and explosive close.
