Rick Sutcliffe, known as "The Northern Spy" in the very old days when
he was a Call A.P.P.L.E. columnist, and a long time programming text
author announces a new web site to house the Modula-2 FAQ and shareware
text, and to launch
"The Peace"--a new novel (Christian Sci-Fi, with an Irish flavour)
In a sufficiently hi-tech society numerous individuals are capable
of mass destruction via nuclear or biological weapons. To survive,
civilization requires a pervasive moral code limiting the use of
technology, but in a fallen world this needs policing, and so do the
police.
James IV, most Christian High King of an Ireland with a different
history than ours is deposed in 1941 by a cabal of his nobles. Exiled
to thinly-populated Irish North America, he and his cousins find
unlikely romance, promote traditional honour, and counter genocidal
high-tech schemes. Sergeant Brian McIlhargey carries on the fight in a
later generation.
Can one family stand against the corrupt rulers of two worlds? What
if one of its own members goes bad?
