The Wormwood Ultimatum


Book Description

Much has changed not only in his own life but also within the world as Erik Roskov, a special agent for the British intelligence service, leaves England to investigate a secret project taking place in the mountains just two hours from Moscow. Greta Burkov, a principle member of the project, is nearly out of her mind with worry. Her husband has been missing for well over six months and when Erik storms through the back door of her cabin with his pistol in hand it seems as though Thomas Burkov has simply disappeared into thin air. But somebody wants Greta dead. After she accepts her friend Otto Zorkov's invitation to stay in his mountain cabin where she hopes she will be safe, Otto and Greta soon learn that national security is in jeopardy just as Erik and his team discover the mysterious Wormwood files. Led to a select group of ecologists who, combined with a group of rogue military officers, are about to carry out a covert military operation that could disrupt the entire social and governmental structure of the world, Erik and his team must try to abort the diabolical plan and save the world government before it is too late.

Conflict, Diaspora, and Empire


Book Description

The actions of Irish nationalists in Britain are often characterised as a 'sideshow' to the revolutionary events in Ireland between 1912 and 1922. This original study argues, conversely, that Irish nationalism in Britain was integral to contemporary Irish and British assessments of the Irish Revolution between the Third Home Rule Bill and the Anglo-Irish Treaty. Darragh Gannon charts the development of Irish nationalism across the Irish Sea over the course of a historic decade in United Kingdom history – from constitutional crisis, to war, and revolution. The book documents successive Home Rule and IRA campaigns in Britain coordinated by John Redmond and Michael Collins respectively and examines the mobilisation of Irish migrant communities in British cities in response to major political crises, from the Ulster crisis to the First World War. Finally, Conflict, Diaspora, and Empire assesses the impacts of Irish nationalism in metropolitan Britain, from Whitehall to Westminster. The Irish Revolution, this study concludes, was defined by political conflicts, and cultures, across the Irish Sea.
