"...Follow the triumphs and disasters of two unlikely, powerful friends in Margaret Thatcher's Britain, as they confront dangerous times, political and personal turmoil, and historic scandals..."
The Enemy Within;
Veteran Geordie lobby correspondent, Alf Burton, has long had to balance his personal friendship with Conservative Home Secretary, Sir Norman Armstrong, with his political views and background. Anti-Thatcherite, working-class champion, crusading journalist and political commentator, his role as national radio presenter and interviewer for one of the leading Tory Party donors, heightens the tension further. Especially when the Home Office plans to enforce mass redundancies in shipbuilding hot on the heels of the bitter Miners' Strike of 1984-5. His already divided loyalties are stretched to the limit as his journalistic powers are enlisted to investigate the suspicious wartime death and disappearance of a Scotland Yard detective on the point of uncovering disturbing information concerning respected political dynasties at the heart of government. His search reveals a complex web of police corruption, organised crime and a secret society, from which extricating himself is not an option.
