This book begins with a succinct account of how Ranasinghe Premadasa emerged against heavy odds as the leader of the UNP. It describes his victory at the 1988 Presidential election, and the establishment of a highly personalized regime. The conflict with the Tigers is described, as well as the emergence of opposition within his own party that led to an attempt at impeachment.
