'In the increasingly turbulent atmosphere of international environmentalism, the once peaceful grass roots climate change group - The Eden Movement - has been covertly taken over by the mysterious figure known only to his legion of radical followers as Prime.

'At the same time, an increasing number of high ranking Australian military officials and senior ASIO intelligence analysts are contracting an untraceable and fast-acting virus with a 100 percent fatality rate.

'With few clues and precious little time, Sentinel operative Jonas "Witch Doctor" Blackthorne must unravel this mysterious plot and locate the shadowy figure at the centre of the chaos.

'For unbeknownst to the world at large, The Eden Movement is on the very tip of the iceberg in a deadly plan that will risk the lives of billions and forever alter the future of the entire human race.' (From the publisher's website.)

As Australians prepare for their annual Australia Day celebrations, S.E.N.T.I.N.E.L. (Strategic Enforcement, National Terrorism Intelligence Network, Espionage and Logistics) discovers that a major terrorist attack on Sydney Harbour is imminent.

With a limited window of opportunity, S.E.N.T.I.N.E.L. operative Jonas Blackthorne leads a black-ops commando cross border raid on a Jemaah Islamiyah stronghold in a remote Indonesian village – where he uncovers detailed plans of a dirty bomb strike targetting some of Sydney’s most iconic landmarks.

With the bomb components intercepted, and the key players seemingly arrested, Australia’s political elite claim that a major terrorist attack has been successfully averted.

Blackthorne, however, remains unconvinced that the intercepted bomb is an isolated incident, believing that it is only one element in a highly orchestrated and multi-faceted attack.

Armed with minimal intelligence and with precious little time, Blackthorne embarks on an audacious plan to locate the mastermind behind the attack in an attempt to neutralise the biggest terror threat Australia has ever faced.
