Operation Millennium by Shaun Clarke lands on the shelves of my shop.
Simon & Schuster, 1999, Hardback in dust wrapper.
From the cover: Britain is in the grip of millennium fever, as reactionary forces attempt to overthrow the infrastructure of the Establishment by any means necessary. Widespread social breakdown has led to paranoid religious and political movements enticing vulnerable people to their top-secret retreats, where they are brainwashed and turned into fanatics. The disenfranchised, disillusioned die-hard remains of societys forgotten dream are up in arms, with the fearful megalomaniac, Prince, as their leader. After planting several bombs in key London locations, their next target is Buckingham Palace and the Royal family
The only way to combat the threat of insurrection is by employing the QRF Quick Reaction Force with SAS Sergeant Lenny Cusack at the helm. The QRF is a legend in its own time, having successfully tackled every kind of terrorist threat, but pitted against the fervent genius of Prince its steely strength is tested to the maximum. And, while Cusack is undoubtedly the SASs hardest man, he is grief-stricken by the loss of his family to one of the religious groups he now finds himself up against
