Nemesis

The world evolves.Billions are subjugated by the elite few who cannot be legally deposed. As the planet rolls onwards to its nemesis two groups will remain for the denouement the elite few and the assassins they contracted with and in the end only the assassins. Stephen Parry cold remorseless Cumbrian and Michael O'Leary charismatic literate Irishman are professional assassins. Publicly denied their profession is an essential component of world politics. Assassinations commissioned by quietly spoken people in suits are carried out with cool efficient detachment. This changes however when the assassins confront an apocalyptic horror casually undertaken by the elite which dramatically polarises their previous political disinterest. The consequences are world shattering.
