Defence of the Realm

For Dennis Markham, Labour MP and anti-nuclear campaigner, it is the end of a career. To Nick Mullen, ace reporter for the popular press, it's just another story.
For the British Government it's a profound relief.
But when Vernon Bayliss, distinguished journalist, a colleague of Nick's and an old friend of Dennis Markham, dies in unexplained circumstances, Nick senses a bigger story.
The trail leads from a borstal break out, via an American air base in East Anglia, to the well -upholstered confines of a London club.
But who is trying to cover up what and why?
The price of truth is high But the cost could be the DEFENCE OF THE REALM
