Sinossi

New York Times–Bestselling Author: A British MP and an intelligence agent suspect a vast conglomerate of drug crimes—but must live long enough to prove it . . .   In the jungles of northern Burma, land has been cleared and construction of a large, luxurious resort is well underway. At the same time, Burmese heroin has suddenly started pouring into Western nations. British agent Patrick Hyde suspects it isn’t a coincidence.   Is the worldwide hotel chain that’s building the resort using its casinos to launder drug money? How is the Chinese government involved? And is there any connection to the recent murder of a Burmese man—a constituent of British MP Marion Pyott? Hyde must follow the tangled threads and keep both himself and Marion alive in this gripping novel of passion, politics, and espionage from the renowned author of Firefox and A Different War.   “When it comes to keeping the story moving and stoking up the excitement, Mr. Thomas knows his business.” —The New York Times

    Xavier "Scarecrow" Wallace, a mixed-race MMA fighter on the wrong side of thirty, is facing the fight of his life. Xavier can no longer deny he is losing his battle with chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), or pugilistic dementia. Through the fog of memory loss, migraines, and paranoia, Xavier does his best to stay in shape by training at the Philadelphia gym owned by his cousin-cum-manager, Shot, a retired champion boxer to whom Xavier owes an unpayable debt. 
     
     
     
    Xavier makes ends meet while he waits for the call that will reinstate him after a year-long suspension by teaching youth classes at Shot's gym and by living rent-free in the house of his white father, whom Xavier was forced to commit to a nursing home. The progress of Sam Wallace's end-stage Alzheimer's has revealed his latent racism, and Xavier finally gains insight into why his Black mother left the family years ago. 
     
     
     
    Then Xavier is offered a chance at redemption: a last-minute high-profile comeback fight. If he can get himself back in the game, he’ll be able to clear his name and begin to pay off Shot. With his memory in shreds and his life crumbling around him, can Xavier hold on to the focus he needs to survive?
