A thrilling contemporary story of betrayal, loss of control, and the search for redemption in the west of Scotland. And a fast boat, naturally.
Jack Ross is in the rough end of Glasgow late one rainy Monday night having his head kicked in. As he staggers to his knees, he regrets he’d even heard of Hong Kong …
… Where it had all started six months earlier with an error of judgement. Forced to reassess his values, he decides the time is right to pursue his Vision, which involves the West Highlands, a fast boat - and a flawed basis.
After a promising start things slowly unravel as he runs out of money, he finds himself involved with drug smugglers, his daughter is abducted - and his wife discovers the flaw in the Vision.
As they search for his daughter the police are blocked in their enquiries in every direction and Jack decides to go it alone – but with what chance of success?
Soon Jack and his son Tom are fighting for their lives, and the police are staking out a Glasgow flat with an armed response team. The maelstrom is taking them all down.
