SIX YEARS LATER SIX YEARS LATER

A lone dissenter in a society full of politically correct sheep, Joseph Giant often feels like the only man alive who can see the dangerous path British society is tak- ing in its effort to placate an increasingly vocal Muslim minority. An anthropology professor at Oxford, Giant is fearless in speaking to his students about the changes he sees taking shape around him. First, it’s the ban of church bells on Sunday to prevent offending minorities. Then it’s moving the official “Day of Rest” from Sunday to Friday. Trivial though they might seem, Giant can see the invisible hands behind these initiatives and doesn’t intend to remain silent.

Enter Beth Rimmer, i.e. Scarlet Beth, the eye-catching young student activist who is initially opposed to Giant’s stubborn politics. After hearing him out, it isn’t long before the tenacious beauty falls for the outspoken professor and becomes one of his greatest advocates. Meanwhile, extreme changes in Britain are occurring at a pace so fast that the average citizen is left in a tailspin. With Giant and Beth both personally threatened by the new cultural revolution, the stakes are raised.

As elements of Shari’a law begin creeping into British life, it becomes apparent that Giant’s early predictions were not that of a paranoid professor. With the silent majority finally shifting from its complacency, he decides to take on the mission of saving his country from those who aim to see it converted…. in more ways than one. DAVID ALTMAN
