Hidden Citizens
A spinoff from the Chasing Shadows Series sees Hamilton embark on his most dangerous mission yet. The future of Scotland hangs in the balance

Matthew Beckett MP
Prime Minister of the United Kingdom
With four centuries of mutual history to unravel, and after three Prime Ministers have fallen on their swords since the last general election, it is left to Matthew Beckett, an army veteran, political novice, and controversial figure to negotiate the terms of Scottish severance from the Union, renew public trust in politics and stave off his Party's electoral oblivion.
Sophie Allingham
Baroness Glencairn of Dumfries
A political heavyweight in the House of Lords, the Baroness is a very senior official in the UK Civil Service. Serving both as Principal Private Secretary to the Prime Minister and Downing Street Chief of Staff, she is personally and politically very close to Beckett, and wields considerable power and influence in the corridors of Whitehall.


Fiona Macgregor MSP
First Minister of Scotland
Following her successful campaign in the Second Referendum for Scottish Independence, Macgregor now finds herself at loggerheads with the UK Prime Minister over the terms of the formal severance agreement. While the political stalemate continues, external forces manoeuvre into position to take advantage of the situation in a way no one could have foreseen.
Mikhail Fedorov
President of the Russian Federation
A Red Army veteran and former Spetsnaz officer, now elevated to the highest political office in the land, Federov wants to reassert Russian influence on the world stage and sees a newly independent Scotland as a staging post to ensure his country is finally taken seriously.
