Description
A lonely house in the English countryside basks in the heavy, flower-scented air of a midsummer heatwave. But the scene is not as peaceful as it seems.
Behind the leaded windows stand three men with guns, and an ordinary family helplessly caught up in international politics.
In a desperate race to outwit the gunmen, each member of the family has to make a harrowing decision which ultimately could affect the future of the whole country. For in the gunmen's hands is a terrible product of the new technology - a ground-to-air missile which can carry death from the quiet of a country garden into the distant sky far above.
