Overview
Tim Jordan works in an IT department of a bank, which has offices in Canary Wharf in London. He is in his twenties and experiences the usual highs and lows of a man coming to grips with changes that come thick and fast in city life. Mysterious intrusions at his flat and in his office has put him on edge; his father, Andrew Jordan is becoming increasingly unwell. His great grandmother, Sarah Jordan, has recently died at the unusually old age of 110, but before she could be buried, her coffin, with her body in it, is snatched from a funeral parlour in Cheshire in Northern England. His love life is unsatisfying and his work is unravelling, complicated by the arrival of his new boss, John Brimer, a mystery man only slightly older than Tim, a mystery in more ways than one, but a very competent boss. Why steal a corpse? Tim ponders; Brimer has ideas but both men get swept up in the quest of competing groups to find potentially powerful solutions to the physical ills of mankind. But both get too involved to the point that their lives are in danger, although Brimer has the uncanny habit of escaping serious harm, much to Tim's astonishment. Brimer is a man full of surprises - and secrets - that are needed to the fullest extent to thwart their protagonists. Tim's great grandmother holds the key. When she was alive she was in possession of the information that all are seeking. Tim and Brimer are forced to be party to the search for her secrets but Brimer's own secret is needed to be fully utilised to combat their nefarious foes. It is needed even more to turn Brimer's own life around, but only if he is willing to make one decision, a decision that would be termed 'ultimate' in any person's life, a decision that determines life or death, his own life or death..... but not in a way that you would think. What would you do in his position?
