For two years, Peter Tyler has had a grudge against Edward Ludlow, sixties’ kingpin of music and fashion, now offshore multi-millionaire businessman. With no thought other than profit, immediately upon inheriting the factory where Tyler worked, Ludlow had closed it down. Being the main employer in that part of England's rural West Country, many were left struggling. As a highly qualified mechanic engineer, Tyler could find no gainful employment thereabouts, so he put his mind to developing an idea for a unique flying machine that he visualised could revolutionise surveyance. All it needed now was finantial backing.
Awaking on New Year’s Day 1988 incensed to learn that Ludlow had been honoured with a Knighthood, Tyler had no inkling that his own fortunes were also about to change. Whilst taking his daily cycle trek through the woods surrounding Ludlow’s vast estate, he narrowly escapes colliding with an out-of-control horse ridden by a distraught Stephanie Star, Ludlow’s washed-up Sixties’ supermodel wife. As the horse rears up and charges off, a reel of magnetic tape falls into the bushes.
On it, is a conversation that presentsTyler with a moral dilemma; should he act on the knowledge or play dumb?
He splits the difference and uses his initiative.
