A hostage-taker hides a shocking secret in a breakneck literary thriller that combines the worlds of conspiracy theory [and] reality TV.--National Post

Without warning, a man, armed with explosives, seizes a television studio taking over a hundred terrified hostages. He offers no motive. And he makes just a single curious demand. The only person he'll speak to is Thom Pegg, a once honored investigative journalist turned disgraced tabloid reporter. As surprised as anyone, and pressured to comply by authorities, Pegg reluctantly enters the fray as the chosen confidante.

From outside, the enthralling drama is revealed through the eyes of two very different people: Eve, an Olympic gold medalist and local hero; and a mysterious renegade street artist known only as Rabbit. As 24/7 media coverage helps to feed the public's paranoia with reckless rumor, the lives of three strangers are brought inexorably together in an unfathomable and chaotic endgame.

In this unforgettable . . . exhilarating, at-times alarming read (Atssa York), prize-winning author Timothy Taylor paints a powerful picture of the sinister side of our interconnected world. The result is an ambitious . . . wonderful novel--a thought-provoking and challenging story that will . . . change the way you look at our celebrity-driven culture (The Vancouver Sun).
