Somebody Stop Them

The Skatt Imperium is a ruthless organisation, hell-bent on expanding its criminal activities empire. It happily deals in anything from producing counterfeit goods to hijacking convoys and even has a hand in the evil slave-trade. It is expanding across Britain, Europe and North America. Very little can stop it. Governmental organisations battle against its ever-spreading tentacles in a desperate effort to curtail its growing power. One of these is the Ministry of Information for the 21st Century – MI21, based in Britain. The Skatts have lost control of a flash-drive. Two teenagers have it, though they were only supposed to retain it for a day, while MI21 agents came to collect it from them. Something has gone very wrong. Mel and Sam are now in imminent danger, and the chase is on. Skatts are on their trail, while the MI21 agents fail to collect the memory stick. When Mel and Sam discover what is really on the storage device, events become even worse, as Skatt demands for death are issued. The teenagers are slowly being drawn towards MI21 by Mel's uncle, Jack Sanders, who is its Director of European Operations. Yet has he made a monumental error in asking Mel and Sam to carry out a simple task? Even at the beginning, death is seconds away on the end of a rope.
