Graham Park is in love. But Sara Fitch is an enigma to him, a creature of almost perverse mystery. Steven Grout is paranoid – and with justice. He knows that They are out to get him. They are.

But he must find an answer before he knows the question.

Park, Grout, Quiss – no trio could be further apart. But their separate courses are set for collision.
