'Set within a fictitious period of Australian history, when socialism has been in place for numerous years, the narrative revolves around Mark Meredith, a student at Melbourne University who becomes involved in a conspiracy to overthrow the socialist government. In this respect Chomley provides a bleak and negative view of socialism, thereby providing a platform for revolution. However, while the conspirators are ultimately successful in over-throwing the government, the country soon afterwards slides quickly into chaos, leaving Meredith and his sweetheart no choice but to escape in a friend's yacht. Disconsolate, he reflects sadly that the Australian people are not yet ripe for self-government (Solomon. p.307).'
