A young single guy in his mid-twenties is duped into innocently becoming involved in the illegal ransom exchange of a small wooden box. He has no idea of its significance, but the box is wanted for different reasons by Chinese Triads and a rival group of a crooked business sect. Unaware that he is the subject of pursuit by both groups seeking the box, he and his girlfriend continue with their lives as normal. It's only when unsavoury events befall them that they realise their lives are in danger. Unable to simply hand the box over, due to being unable to prove it to the second party, they become embroiled in a chase that takes them to mainland Europe. Difficult situations abound as they run for their lives. Why was possession of the box important to both parties? Born in London, Alan Clarke now lives in The Lake District in West Cumbria, England. He is a technical writer in the nuclear industry and a classic motorcycle enthusiast.
