A kidnapped girl. A lawless border. One man running out of time.
Disgraced undercover cop Declan Finney is given one last chance to salvage his career: rescue the daughter of the New South Wales Governor from kidnappers operating deep inside the Golden Triangle.
The trail leads north. From Sydney to Bangkok and into the borderlands where the law has no reach, Finney finds himself alone, out of jurisdiction, and surrounded by men who kill without consequence.
Inside the operation is a network of drug traffickers, corrupt officials, and expats with something to hide. Trust is thin. Every move is watched.
With only a handful of unreliable allies, including a sharp-eyed Thai journalist and a Burmese fixer who knows more than he says, Finney is forced to make choices that cross the line between law and survival.
The clock is running.
And in the Golden Triangle, nobody comes out clean.
