Nick Shannon is out. Out of prison and out for justice. All he wants is to put his life back together- and to find the man who crippled his sister and killed her boyfriend.
He’s got a job in ‘due diligence’- assessing the price to be paid to take over a company- so at least that’s a start. Then his boss is murdered, and what better prime suspect than an ex-con? John’s mutilated body is only the first of Nick’s discoveries. As he struggles to clear himself, Nick turns over the stone which reveals John’s secret life of fraud, sexual entrapment and blackmail. It emerges that the man tipped off to be the next Chancellor is top of the list of John’s victims, that a million pounds has disappeared and that he’s inherited a dead man’s enemies.
What he hasn’t got is time. Just three days to identify who’s paying money into his account, three days to work out why someone wants to steal his future.
