Synopsis

A sunny London lunchtime is punctuated by a casual act of violence that will ricochet across four continents. Stephen Connor, trainee Metropolitan Police detective is first on the scene when a cyclist is killed in a seemingly ordinary hit-and-run. Just another tragedy on a London street? Nothing seems to trouble the driver, Big Oil PR guru Greg Palmer - who treats the incident as a minor inconvenience. Palmer is confronted by the dead girl's soulmate, Cara who howls at the injustice of a system that allows an unrepentent killer to walk free. When Cara flees halfway across the world to confront him, Stephen is one step behind. Can Stephen protect Cara from a group of charismatic eco-terrorists, who try to lure her in? Palmer thrives on burying bad news and there is no dirtier business than an oil company trying to hide a major environmental disaster. As a publicity stunt at a major oil refinery goes wrong, who will be there when Cara finds out that the target she cared so passionately about had simply moved? Against a backdrop of London, New Zealand, Antarctica and Australia, the race begins....
