From 1979 to 1990 the British government had acquired a truce with Russia on the strategic targeting of its I.C.B.M’s, this spelling the end of “The Cold War” and so beginning the founding stones of the domino trail that would lead the way to a whole new decade ahead. But deep in the background of all these world events and political concessions there stood a much darker plan manifesting within the ranks of ‘The Law Lords’, better known between The Secret Societies as the infamous “Baker’s Dozen”; 13 men who control the nation’s public, while they, the Lords themselves succumb to those ‘Four Houses’ of great power: The MoD, Police, Civil Services and Justice. As one ‘Secret Order’ to the next lock horns in the battle for global supremacy, only one with hope of uniting them all and bring balance within The Orders’ stands in their way. When Lord Terrence O’Neill dies through ill health, his son Master Xander O’Neill is put in line to become the next Lord of The House, though this is no normal House. As the young man of seventeen is not seen in the eyes of the Law as old enough to lead his own ‘Order’, he is challenged for power and title. As the Global Order’s start to weaken, crack and fall through catastrophic events they put it upon themselves to protect him as others hunt to kill the Master, his journey is accompanied by friends and enemies alike; those who stay close assist him in many fetes and challenges, as those who are distant lay down their web of deceit, betrayal, loathing and lust for the chance to destroy the young man’s soul – by destroying the Family O’Neill name. From Seacliffe to London, Scotland to Amsterdam, Xander fends for himself while discovering that he is more valuable to “The Orders’” dead than alive. Knowing this his Aunt, Lady Melissa James-Cartwright assigns him the protection of CPS Officers who are previous employees of “The Agency”, an intricate asset of The Home Office. And, as they each play their role in the Power Game;…

PROLOG Cacciatori Svegliarsi Villa had stood for more than fifteen generations, its overall design built purposely around the pre-sixteenth century Masonic architectural elegance of King Charles VIII of France, the sitter of “The House of Valois”, while in every way giving just as much luxury to the tenants that walked its very lush and almost certainly beautiful tainted halls. Sitting prominently upon Cacciatori Hill, the military advantage point gave Lord Arthur Barrisa-O’Neill the perfect pre-warning of any foreign approach – or attack. His family name having carried a much heavier form of authority than most other noble Stately Homes in and around the United Kingdom, much to the bitter taste which stayed within the local villager’s mouths many would tend to agree. And, for the many generations of Oak Wood Village, up until the early 1940’s, it was the Barrisa-O’Neill family that had no favors owing to them or their kind, or indeed that of their nobility claim. Lord Arthur Barrisa-O’Neill himself had become wrapped within controversy during his fifty-five year reign, as some twenty female staff members to his noble House stepped forward with tales to tell of their harsh treatment, sexual harassments and, in many instances – Claims of rape. Of course, being of noble blood and an immediate descendant of the Royal Crown of England, Lord Arthur’s charges were dissolved. As throughout the Barrisa-O’Neill legacy, more and more Lord’s and Master’s became shrouded in the protection of the “Royal Fortified Protection Guild”; a Guild that gave both Amnesty and Exclusion from Prosecution through their immoral acts, and yet, though not immune from the laws of the normal public, they were exposed and found themselves helpless from the avenging families and loved ones they had brought great shame against. As the centuries passed, so too did the Lord’s, while the elder son of the dying Father was made Master to the Manor. Only when their Fathers’ last breath left that of their lifeless body would they take their rightful place and gain a position upon the “Harpsen”, the unofficial throne of “Trono Di Signori” (Throne of Lords).
