    About this ebook

    'A compelling and entertaining romp... thoroughly engrossing.' --Patricia Wood, shortlisted for the 2008 Orange Prize

    'A beautifully paced and balanced novel.' --Seamus Deane, Booker Prize shortlistee

    Desperate to escape his predetermined existence, Danny decides to break out from life in Northern Ireland, and move to London. He then meets Piper, a friendly and outgoing American girl on a quest of her own.

    Two very different worlds are thrown together as Danny is willingly absorbed into unfamiliar territory. However, when the Hammersmith Bridge is bombed, Piper disappears without a trace and Danny finds himself the centre of a police investigation, hounded by whispers of the IRA.

    Dark and humorous, Danny and Piper's story is one of dysfunctional parenting, clashing motives and twenty-something's negotiating love and big city life.

    Perfect for fans of Vince Flynn, Tom Clancy and Brad Thor
