"It is the autumn of 1987.  Eastern Europe stand on the brink of historic upheaval, while Britain is hit by a hurricane and a stock market in freefall.  The sense of change and instability is pervasive.
At London Central, Bernard Samson needs to stay out of trouble for a while, to get to know his wife Fiona again, to put his relationship with his lover Gloria behind him, to re-establish contact with his children.  However, the arrival of a wounded man in the middle of the night, closely followed by Bernard's brother-in-law George Kosinski, indicates that trouble will not easily be avoided."
