No Ordinary Day" is about a 10 year old girl named Valli who discovers she has no family, and that the family she has been living with was paid to take her in after her mother died. The family is very poor and treats her badly. The people in her village work in the coal mines - adults and children alike - and she spends her days walking barefoot through the village collecting coal. She believes she has magic feet because she feels no pain in them, when in reality she has leprosy. Valli fleas her village and ends up in Kolkata, living on the streets. Valli uses her guile and courage to survive each day. She meets an old man and his goat one day and is given wisdom which she follows each day: find someone who needs what you have more than you, and give them what you have. This simple kindness is a lesson for the reader and Valli throughout the book. One day, Valli meets a doctor who offers to heal her feet if she will stay in the hospital with her, and after a time, Valli accepts the offer and is healed.

And now No Ordinary Day is out there. It is a story that has been described by Lee Child as ‘An important book, especially now – both an intensely personal story, and a sober analysis of a political scandal’ For some, it will be a very uncomfortable read. For many, it may confirm what they already suspect, that we, the public, know very little of the decisions being made by our elected representatives and the actions taken by official bodies, supposedly in our best interests. Professor John Grieve CBE, former head of the Anti-Terrorist Squad described it as ‘a clever book, beautifully written.’ a b "초록뱀미디어, 김수현 출연 '어느 날' 17개국 방영권 추가 계약". Nate (in Korean).

No Ordinary Day is more than a history book, as it gives the reader a greater insight into those involved, those whose hands were clean, those whose hands were tied and unable to perform their duty, those whose hands were indeed dirty, those who deserved to be punished. Isaiah as he is called into this particular service as a prophet describes the scene of this vision where he sees God and His angels and just the sight of them causes terror. He doesn’t feel worthy to be there, let alone ever to speak God’s words to the people.

I soon began to realise I was in uncharted territory, exploring and researching a subject that would take me into the dark world of our secret services and the equally duplicitous world of UK politics. To begin, I conducted interviews with people who had been present on the day of the shooting and this led to invitations to meet with others who had been involved in the siege and subsequent criminal enquiry. I spoke to journalists, former members of the secret service – including cream-tea with John Le Carré in his home in Cornwall – and others who suggested avenues of research they thought might prove productive. Many, but not all, were prepared to talk, particularly when they learned of my connection to Yvonne. My best witness, by far, was John Murray himself.
