KILL [redacted]

Michael lost his wife in a terrorist attack on a London train.

He can't get over the fact that the man responsible has got away scot-free. He doesn't blame the bombers, who he considers only as the logical conclusion to a long chain of events.

To Michael's mind, the ultimate cause is the politician whose wars have had such deadly impact abroad. His therapist suggests that he write his feelings down to help him forgive and move on, but as a retired headteacher, Michael believes that for every crime there should be a fitting punishment - and so in the pages of his diary he begins to set out the case to kill Bony Clair.
