She knows he's dangerous. She knows he's ruthless. But she's determined to bring him to justice - even if it kills her.

Media Reviews
Pace, pace, pace is what Kernick does best, and this utterly gripping thriller brings together his great renegade cops Dennis Milne and Tina Boyd for this first time. Revenge is the name of the game here in a filthy Manila * Daily Mirror *
Delights, excited and stimulates, and the only reason you consume it so quickly is because it's so damn good * GQ *
Here's the nitty-gritty. This is a masterpiece of thriller writing that proves Kernick is a world clas operator. His latest surefire hit moves at breakneck speed from London to Hong Kong and the Philippines. It should have a health warning on the cofver as you may well forget to ear, sleep or even breathe as it sucks you into its addictive grip * Peterborough Evening Telegraph *
