Run, Run, Run

On the sunny Golden Sands of Australia's Gold Coast, Jason has everything he could possibly want. His construction business is a success, his love life has never been better, and his two children fill his heart with pride. But when he makes a late-night detour to an old nightclub while celebrating a milestone for his construction project, his carefully constructed life starts to fall apart.

In the nightclub, Jason meets a young woman in distress, triggering a string of events that threaten his career and family. With his building project derailed by persistent vandalism and his kids endangered, Jason must dive into his own past, confront his mistakes and set them right.

What does such destruction foreshadow and who is writing the mystifying messages in red paint on the walls? Everyone is a suspect: neighbours, colleagues, business rivals, even Jason himself. With danger closing in and all the clues pointing towards his past, Jason must unearth buried memories and ultimately question his very self.

Despite the high stakes, he won't let anything stand in the way of protecting his children and stopping the dark forces threatening his neighbourhood. But can he find the answers before it is too late?

In Jay McAlister's debut novel, danger arises when the past resurfaces and threatens to unravel everything Jason has worked for. What does he stand to lose while defending his family?
