A runaway criminal sidekick teams up with his missing boss's monstrous mentor—a sociopath with a taste for precision and an even bigger secret—in a chase across the UK. Riley Shaw, scrawny and scared, is used to being an afterthought. But when Kieran Varys, disappears in a haze of blood, the only person left looking for him is Kieran's terrifying, obsessive architect: a man named Ben. Now Riley must navigate a landscape of motorway services, posh houses, and monstrous authority, and figure out if he's bait, a witness, or something more terrifying—a student.

We join Right then Riley a scrawny, scary, always an afterthought and Ben Appleby a sociopath, who likes precision and carries a huge secret

Keir and Lee have disappeared, but Ben is determined to get them back.

Ben takes Riley back to his house,where they initially argue. But Ben convinces Riley to be the bait.

What follows is a wonderful adventure, that takes us to motorway service stations, cities and plenty of other place's.

We are treated to some violence, murder, love and a little hanky pinky.

But you need to read on to discover what happens to Riley, Kier, Ben and Lee.

Highly recommended.

What a scary, exciting tale focusing on Kier's sidekick Riley and the monster, Ben. Keir has run away with Lee, Ben was his project, Kier, back He is his architect and he wants him back. Ben finds Riley and is disoriented by the chaos he creates, He is going to use Riley as bait to get Kier back.

"I am not 'sweet'," Ben snarled, leaning his weight against Riley. "I am his architect. I am the one who made him. And you... you are nothing. You are the dirt he scraped off his shoe."

He takes Riley to his home. Riley is not sure he is going to live or not. This mystery expands and revises Ben's assumptions and eventually draws in a 4 main characters. You will be amazed how people grow and warp and have new wants. This will almost conclude with a life and death struggle. This does not appear to be set up for Happily Ever After ending.

Do not put this down!
