Struggle, scandal and mutiny run riot in 'Right of Reply', set in the 1970's in a whirlwind of a political crisis. An invasion is planned by a convoy of British troop ships sighted off the coast of West Africa. A Khanzian base is at stake. The British claim sovereignty but sedition is in the air. Can the British government turn back before it's too late? John Harris leaves us on tenterhooks.
