Publisher's Synopsis
When British soldier Alex Fisher returns home from his tour in Bosnia, he's plagued by blackouts, recurring nightmares, and uncontrollable acts of violence. Escaping to Mexico, he sets off on a globetrotting tour in an attempt to finally distance himself from the demons in his head. A chance meeting with a mysterious woman named Angela introduces Fisher to a far more passionate — and far more dangerous — life. After a series of life-threatening encounters, Fisher begins to wonder just who Angela really is — or even if she’s real at all. With his grip on reality slipping, Fisher’s demons return in full force, awakening a flood of suppressed memories. As he attempts to sort through his complicated and half-remembered past, Fisher discovers that the truth is harder to accept than the lies. The first of four books by a popular Dutch writing duo, this tense, psychologically acute thriller marks their American debut.
