AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'If you let decisions happen to you, rather than making decisions, what will happen to you? Can you become someone else without the world noticing?

'When David's wife confesses that she was once a prostitute, the revelation doesn't disturb him, he considers it simply an error of youth. But the following night David collapses from a rare brain disease and within a few months his world is turned upside down.

'It was a perfectly acceptable life – successful business, happy marriage, two children - why then has David involved himself in an identity-theft crime worth millions of dollars? Why is he taking instructions from the oddly eloquent, handsome criminal, Ben Strbic? David can't quite understand the sequence of events that has led him here, only that he must continue to the very end.

'As the days and months progress, a scam that was meant to be straightforward becomes a perilous mystery unfolding in David's very own life.' (Publication summary)
