NOTES

"Although mystery thrillers with well intentioned but flawed protagonists have become one of the most popular fiction genres today, what Mark Weeks pulls off in his debut thriller is different - in scope, subject matter, setting and culture." -NPRAN INTRIGUING CLIENT. A PASSIONATE ATTORNEY. A DEADLY GAME.Top global technology lawyer Tornait "Torn" Sagara knows he shouldn't get involved with his beautiful client, Saya Brooks, whose revolutionary lightning-on-demand invention will solve climate change and render all other energy sources obsolete. But their shared connection as hafu (half Japanese, half American) draws them irresistibly together.Saya's technology could save the world, but what's good for the planet is bad news for those who profit from the status quo. Now, someone wants to stop Saya from commercializing her invention and will go to any lengths-even murder-to do so. When Torn takes Saya for a spin on his motorcycle, they are viciously attacked. That death-defying battle on a crowded Tokyo expressway is only the start of Torn's wild ride.As the violence escalates, Torn discovers that everything he values-his reputation, his family, and even his life-is on the line. Racing from the boardrooms of Tokyo to the wilds of Russia in a desperate search for the truth, Torn is forced to face his own flaws and discover what really matters most
