It's a certain kind of fool that likes to hear the sound of his own name. Consensual Worlds is about the life of a freelance intelligence operative, who for years has shunned recognition, helped give birth to the private security agency that ran him, and describes how, enmeshed in this murky existence, truth, and justice are no longer a priority, revealing the lengths governments are prepared to go to when outsourcing operations to fulfil their insatiable need to acquire evermore information.Based on actual events that occurred in, and around Sudbury, a small market town in the heart of Suffolk, England, he and his French partner Sabine, a ruthless corporate financier settle, but unknown to her, he's leading a double life. Forced into surviving in this rural part of the country, a feeling of predestination begins to pervade his thoughts, which is confirmed when he meets Karen, the partner of a affluent doctor. An extraordinary love affair begins.The narrative then explores how, in his attempt to keep his life a secret, the romance becomes increasingly tumultuous. A man in conflict with himself emerges, torn between his existential need for secrecy and trusting Karen with the truth. Sabine hatches a plan to win him back, which he exploits, but with disastrous results. The dark side of human nature is revealed, sensuality, egoism and deceit playing their part, until the struggle between Karen and Sabine for Tony's devotion becomes uncontrollable.The preservation of the security of the nation being at stake, the matter is taken out of his hands and he is ordered to make a choice between the woman he loves, or suffer the consequences. Riven by indecision he devises a plan that will ensure Karen's safety, resulting in one of the most painful acts of his life, and in doing so nearly exposes his identity in the process.This is a tragic love story, but when you're a custodian of precious secrets, sometimes to love you have to be a stranger, proving irrefutably that when these two worlds collide there is no unanimity.
