Publisher Description
Chris Hutchison is a man on the run. Imprisoned for a crime he didn't commit, Hutch escapes from a British maximum security prison and starts a new life in Hong Kong. Then a ghost from his past catches up with him, forcing him to help a former terrorist break out of a Bangkok prison. Or face life behind bars once more.
Meanwhile the DEA wants to nail the vicious drug warlord responsible for flooding the States with cheap heroin. And decides to use Hutch as a pawn in a deadly game.
Hutch's bid for freedom takes him into the lawless killing fields of the Golden Triangle, where the scene is set for one final act of betrayal . . .

Customer Reviews
Lengthy- but very good
Although an old book, it was hardly noticeable that the world has changed in the intervening years.
Far longer read than I am used to but it really got its hooks into me and I regretted it every time I had to put the book down.
Found a few parts a bit over graphic but on another day I must just say that it was very gritty and “real”.
Have been reading this authors work for many years and always enjoy the realism that he weaves onto his stories.
Keep up the good work Mr Leather
Thanks 😎
