A young veteran of the US Army, River Roulet is struggling to shake the horrors of his past. War is behind him, but the memories remain. Desperate to distract himself from the images haunting him daily, River abandons the world he knows and flees to the country he's always dreamed of visiting: Brazil.

Rio de Janeiro is everything he hoped for and more. In the lead-up to Carnaval, the city is alight with music, energy, and life. With a few friends at his side, River seems to be pulling his life together at last.

Then he meets the enchanting Natal, an impassioned journalist and free spirit-who lives with the gangster that rules much of Rio.

As their romance blossoms, River and Natal flee together into the interior of Brazil, where they are pursued by the sadistic drug lord, Tio Amato, and his men. When River is forced to kill one of those men, the chase becomes even deadlier. Not only is the powerful drug boss after them, the Brazilian government is on their trail as well.

Will the two lovers escape-and will River ever be free of the bloody memories that haunt him?

Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

"I have mixed emotions about authors reading their own work. Those who aren’t performers usually just read. Such is not the case with Chad Michael Murray. As one of the authors as well as an accomplished actor, his performance puts the finishing touch on his collaboration with Heather Graham." -LiteratiLiteratureLovers

Library Journal

11/01/2017
Suffering from nightmares induced by post-traumatic stress disorder, army veteran River Roulet flees the States and escapes to Brazil, where he lives on very little, makes some good friends, and meets a mysterious woman named Natal. She's adventurous and beautiful, and River quickly becomes obsessed. He doesn't care where she's from or who she really is; being together is all that matters, and he's determined to overcome the many obstacles, including the drug lord who is Natal's lover, to make that happen. Best-selling author Graham and TV star Murray (making his fiction debut) have teamed up to pen a haunting page-turning tale about a broken man. Readers will need to savor slowly to absorb every clue as the dreamlike, slightly disjointed plotline leads to a doozy "aha" that makes the journey worthwhile. The likable, eclectic characters are well drawn; the authors also succeed in capturing the vibrant landscape and culture of Brazil. But it's the tragedy of PTSD that dominates the narrative. VERDICT This thriller will appeal to readers who love complex story lines, untidy, gritty psychological mysteries, and clever, complicated protagonists. Members of Murray's fan club will also definitely be curious.—Debbie Haupt, St. Charles City-Cty. Lib. Dist., St Peters, MO
