Every three thousand, two hundred and twenty four years the planets of our solar system fall into alignment with each other.  Every twenty four years Jupiter returns to your birth sign.  In 2006 Mars came closer to Earth that it had been for millenia.

Magnetic poles play off each other in this interplanetary ballet and, when combined with gravity waves of a certain frequency, can alter cosmic destiny. What do these astrological titbits have to do with this novel?

Very probably nothing.  They may, however, have been the driving force behind you picking up this fantastic story of complete strangers caught up in a rollercoaster of politics, intrigue, the media, cults, pyromaniacs and floatation tanks.

This is Kit Fennessy's first novel.  He hopes it does not fall into alignment with Uranus.
