Description: A suspected terrorist is frisked for explosives on the Embankment. Operators do this so skilfully he remains completely unaware. In New Scotland Yard a new brand of manager fails to deal with escalating threats - aggressive indecision is what Detective Chief Inspector John Kerr calls it. He discovers that cocaine-fuelled sex parties in Knightsbridge are pulling in businessmen, Russian diplomats and senior members of the British government. So when Kerr's investigations are blocked by his bosses in Scotland Yard, he decides to go it alone and begins to expose a cover-up that extends to all levels of the British Establishment.
