Main story line, POV of MC Claire, American girls Claire and Marci* spend the summer with their Scottish college friend in Scotland. They navigate the turmoil of a series of catastrophic terrorist attacks together. As events progress, they assemble a passable guerilla force to secure their region and inspire others throughout the UK to do the same.
Subplot 1, a series of extremely omniscient vignettes following various terrorists, laying out generic motivations and illustrating the complexity of the attack plans.
Subplot 2, POV of a Labour MP, illustrating the political events leading to the attacks. Basically a treatise on the perils of PC-ism and "tolerance".
Subplot 3, POV of a junior data analyst in MI-5, who has a hunch about the magnitude of the attacks but doesn't have enough political clout to get anyone to do anything about it. I think he's going to be instrumental in helping the "insurgents".
I might merge Subplot 1 and 2. Still working on it.

There some fun irony in some “colonists” coming back over to the Home Islands and helping to form up a good old fashioned militia.
Not sure how Lafayette figures into it this time ‘round, tho... :-)
