Summary

In a mission that goes badly wrong, loyal assassin Brodie takes out the nephew of the criminal mastermind he works for - and the hitman suddenly finds himself in the firing line.

Saved by the woman he was sent to kill, Brodie is injured and at her mercy. But Brodie and Karima know too much about unforgiving gangster Donny to remain alive. Brodie his gun for hire. Karima his accountant. They both know where the bodies are buried.

And when Donny turns the might of his brutally violent empire on them, there’s only one thing to do: run. Because as Brodie knows all too well, a moving target is harder to hit. Bound together, this unlikely couple must do all they can to survive. But can Karima ever trust the man who was sent to end her life?

Taking flight, they can only outpace their would-be killers for so long. When they run out of road, they have one last shot at freedom. But can they make it - before it’s too late?

Great story and quality narrator

Really enjoyed the story. Changing landscape as the plot develops. Narrator had a full range of accents. A real ‘grower’ of a story where as you get to the end, in my case I drove a bit further to listen a bit more. Thanks
