A Clever Combatant

Signals intercepts are warning Canada’s security services of an imminent attack on the West Coast of the country. Quickly, Colonel Ian Munro (The Arch Deceiver) finds himself back in Vancouver where his covert unit, the Insurgent Review Commission (IRC), and conventional agencies are tasked to stop it. Munro recruits a renowned investigator with extensive local experience to assist in the operation. A legend, Staff Sergeant Major Ian (Fergie) Ferguson brings his unabashed style of doing things to the IRC.

Within days, a raid on an armoury fails. A reliable ‘street’ source reveals that international insurgents, reinforced by radicalized locals, are responsible. Using standard surveillance techniques, plus a few creative ones, Munro discovers their commander is a vengeance-driven, second generation fanatic. He also learns that Canada is not the only target: Colonel Munro is in the crosshairs as well.
