Description

Kyle West is a wanted man. The United States government think he's leaked secrets at the highest level, and they'll stop at nothing to find him. He's managed to escape to Cambodia, but he can't relax, can't stop looking over his shoulder. He just wants to find a way home.

So when he meets Julian Robinson - a man with his own reasons to run, who's willing to swap passports with him - Kyle thinks his luck might finally be changing.

He's wrong.

Because Julian Robinson isn't who he claims to be.

And now he's been dragged into a world of violence and death, of Russian oligarchs, Chinese operatives and CIA officials, time is running out for Kyle to find out who he really is...

Applying postmodern polish to the foreign intrigue of Graham Greene and Eric Ambler, [it] leaves an imprint with its lively cast of characters, pungent locale and dizzy plotting - Kirkus Reviews
