'You have to do it, Berry. You must believe me when I tell you that the safety of the world depends upon you . . .' A page-turning, high action, road trip adventure novel which travels from England to the New Mexico desert.
Berlin, 1945: A Nazi scientist is captured and forced to work for the Americans. New Mexico, 1947: A renegade FBI agent is hunted down by his former colleagues, but disappears into thin air before he can be arrested. England, 2007: an old man throws himself in front of a bus to save the life of a teenager - and walks away unscathed.
Alone and on the run from Social Services, 14-year-old Berry has nowhere to go. Until the old man who saves her life entrusts her with a package containing a mysterious item. Other people also want the item and will stop at nothing to get it.
Pursued by the FBI and a vicious terrorist group, Berry travels from the Glastonbury Festival and across the Atlantic. With fellow outcast, Elle, by her side, they are soon dodging bullets in a desperate race across America.
Berry knows that she must stay alive long enough to find the item's rightful owner - whoever, or whatever, they may be.
