'We can't save ourselves,' Agustin tells Quinn and Judy, 'only each other'. Pursued through Mexico and Guatemala by the sinister New Era Mission, three solitary fugitives are desperate not just to escape but to regain control of lives that have come apart. As the Mission closes in, they must overcome suspicions and differences and rediscover allegiances they have abandoned. It is their only chance for survival.

Bennett writes as a fully-fledged novelist under taut control. His burgeoning invention marks him a future winner' on Sunday -- Daily Mail 'Impressive... Bennett is one of those rare novelists who give thriller writing a good name' -- Observer 'A thriller without gadgets or gimmicks... Bennett relies on his questing characters to carry a story which manages to keep everyone guessing until the end' -- Irish Times
