Synopsis[]

Environmental terrorists storm the Thames Barrier and threaten to flood London unless a document known as `Aftermath' is published.

Will Harry sacrifice his best officers to protect London and secure the government's lies?

Plot[]

When a North Sea tidal surge threatens to flood London, an eco-terror group, Divine Earth take control of the Thames Barrier, rig it with explosives and threaten to blow it unless the government publishes a report, "Aftermath", which states that the government will build an economic and military strength so that Britain and America can control the remaining resources from global warming.

Meanwhile, Harry learns that Adam is growing suicidal, and has gone into a complete breakdown during the operation. To prevent the group from destroying the barrier, MI5 must flood a section of the barrier to counter the threat. However, Adam and Ros are in those sections. After stopping Divine Earth, the two narrowly escape drowning.
