The story surrounds the struggle between the Establishment and the younger generation in modern(1969) society. The Assassin - a young student, self-taught in philosophy and politics, committed and sincere, from a Belfast Catholic Ghetto. The Victim - the Rev. Colonel Luther A. Lamb; a fully fledged bible salesman and head of his own Evangelical Party(with it's army of thugs), his party has won a considerable number of seats in a Parliamentary Election and the celebrations are in full swing when the shot rings out. The martyrdom of Lamb sparks off a new round of trouble for Belfast City.
