the Beautiful Game meets 'The Most Dangerous Game'...

Tempest Road

The impossible happened. Two billion people watched an American striker score an electrifying, stoppage-time goal to beat Italy for the FIFA World Cup.

Days before, that same Yankee, Mitch MacLeod, slotted in the game-winner against Brazil in the semi-final.

Timing is everything. Passions are ignited. Jubilation fills the streets. Jerseys sell out.

But there's a price to pay for having your name etched in glory.

 

Waking up blindfolded and tied to a chair is, for MacLeod, just the beginning of a waking nightmare. As the insanity of a daring plot unfolds, MacLeod must wrestle a ghost of his past and decide.

Speaking up could get him killed. So could staying silent.

Time is running out.
