Accounting for Terror

Om Accounting for Terror

Australia refuses to allow 'Tampa's' asylum-seekers into the country and terrorists attack New York... An Australian bank manager is retrenched. Removed from his position of authority above the town's main intersection, he contemplates his cautious existence, his personal, expedient reality. His mind is disintegrating... In a series of episodic recollections, before the past catches up with him, he reveals his relationships with his family - with his parents, and his criminal brother. He recounts his acrimonious debate with the local Presbyterian Minister, and examines the state of his conscience after reassessing the part he played in the death of his sister's first husband. He stays in touch with the world beyond Australia through the songs of Bob Dylan. But as that world darkens and is consumed by terror, the bank manager plans his own response to the terror within... 'Accounting for Terror' is the first novel in 'The Terror Trilogy' and is followed by 'Guantanamo Bay' and 'A Captain of Souls'.
