In ever-constricting circles, Jeff winds around the heart of a city few emerge from untainted. He reaches out to his new English girlfriend, Serena, but she is enmeshed in her own terrible dilemma and may prove even more dangerous.

Sage brings together characters from across different countries and entirely different lifestyles. I found myself always pulling for the main character Jeff as he unravels a strange and unbelievable plot of his new found family member. Although there are a few things I wish would have been elaborated on that may just be the science geek in me, I really enjoyed the book. Thanks Daniel for the good read.
