Sex, political violence in Stockholm, Tel Aviv and Paris. Political murder in suburban London. Death, love and homicide in New York. War in the belly of a whale.

Includes the plays: HONEYPOT Susanne, a beautiful Swedish woman joins Mossad as a secret agent ten years after the Munich Olympics. Why does she put her life at risk for a people who are not hers? Sex, politics and murder in a high tension Arab, Jewish, Christian triangle. BROKEN ENGLISH: A secret history of Right Wing Jews in postwar London. In 1946 there was a plot to murder Ernest Bevin by activists opposed to the limits on Jewish entry to Palestine.
