This is the story of two individuals, Chris Nielson and Jane Murphy, who are in full mid-life crisis. Now, both in their forties, they realise they must grab life before it’s too late. Due to a foolhardy decision, however, they find themselves caught up in the grubby world of child-trafficking and are thrown together in their efforts to save Eva, a young refugee, from a criminal gang. Not always sure which side of the law they (or the people they meet) are on, their friendship strengthens, slowly developing into a deeper relationship.

Though the themes are, at times, dark, this is a feel-good story, sprinkled with humour, supported by strong female characters, and a fast-paced mystery adventure.
