Description

Citizens of Trinidad have all heard stories of corruption involving business and government officials alike. They are believed to be involved in many crimes, and are the main profiteers from a lucrative gun and drug trade, a business sustained by good connections and bloodthirsty South American alliances. These stories have raised some concerns and some eyebrows. The ones that are brave, or foolish enough, to raise questions are met with a simple fate. They are murdered. They are missing. Or both. Even though explanations have varied, one thing has always been true: the dead, like the missing, tell no tales. Until now. One Sunday in December Edward Daniels unwittingly stumbles upon a suspicious affair on a North-Coast beach. Those involved discover him, and a battle for survival ensues. These men are determined to silence him forever, no matter the cost, while Daniels tries his best to stay alive against the odds. He quickly learns that deception runs far deeper than he first believed, and there seems to be no one that can help him with his secrets or his struggle for survival. As he faces off with these men with far-reaching power, he uncovers a plot more sinister than anyone could ever imagine. Daniels is still sure that his death is coming. Soon. He is not ready. What he knows though with some certainty, is that the events from that Sunday evening onward will forever change him. And you.
