Hired to assist in security for the London Olympic games, Private finds itself overwhelmed. An air disaster took the lives of some of their best operatives and the London branch finds itself shorthanded. One of the primary men responsible for seeing that London got the games is murdered just as the games are about to begin. The murderer sends a letter to a new reporter covering the games and calls himself Cronus. More deaths ensue. Cronus' goal is to get the games cancelled but the athletes continue to compete and are more determined than ever to carry on. Immediately plunged into the murders, never really got a sense of what or who Private was all about. Disappointed in that aspect. However the mystery was good.
