Ben Hope is contemplating his future and travel to Italy to contact an old friend to discuss his situation. While there he avoids an accident which ultimately turns events around, putting him on the run from the police and agents from Britain.

There is lots of action in this book and Ben's good intentions only get him into trouble as he tries to avoid it. It's a fast pace book with fast pace action all leading to face down with the ultimate enemy. I enjoyed this for most of the book, but towards the end it felt as if it was drifting a bit from the original path. The ending was a bit anti climatic with a cliche "return from the dead event", which should not have happened. Overall it was enjoyable, if you don't mind death and destruction.
