Life could hardly be brighter for Adam. With a lucrative job for a well-respected magazine, comfortable suburban lifestyle, his beautiful wife Amy and their first child on the way, prospects could not be rosier.

Old scores have still to be settled as it becomes clear that some have unfinished business with him. Tension mounts as the birth of his son moves ever closer with Amy suffering recurrent nightmares as regular as clockwork that draw him back to decisions made years ago. Adam’s desperate move to link up with the underworld to quash threats to his life represents a gamble on which his family’s whole future will depend.
