The submarine base section of the harbour housed at this particular time Royal Navy S-Class submarines, two of which had just come in off patrol. They were to spend Christmas, which was just about a week away, in the harbour. The third had orders to sail and the ship's company was busy provisioning the submarine for a three-week patrol (it was my boat, HMS Sickle).
Galabell thought he was taking his family to the Baku Festival and a long overdue visit to his parents. The trip becomes a nightmare as they all become caught in the middle of a conflict between trans-galactic Industry and the Federal Government.
