Across the Tasman Sea, the Aotearoa People's Army is waging a bizarre offensive. A redneck broadcaster is forced to walk the plank, fifteen storeys up. A crusading journalist gets his neck wrung. A diehard monarchist MP is slow-cooked and his bodyguard fed to a pitbull terrier.
But is there more to the shadowy sinister APA than meets the eye? The counter-terrorism experts think they're on top of things, but maverick cop Tito Ihaka reckons they couldn't catch a terrorist if someone's life depended on it. Pretty soon, Ihaka is in grave danger of being proved dead right.
