Description: Kyle West is a wanted man. Having fled the country to escape false charges filed against him and his former boss, Kyle is hiding in Cambodia, living on borrowed time and finding more and more reasons to be paranoid. When a mysterious stranger named Julian Robinson walks into Kyle's favorite caf and offers to swap passports with him, Kyle can't believe his luck. Robinson looks so much like him it's almost unreal. Unfortunately for Kyle, the swap is too good to be true. Suddenly he finds himself pursued by Russian oligarchs, Chinese operatives, the CIA, and a beautiful woman trained to kill. Robinson certainly isn't who he seemed, and time is running out for Kyle to discover the truth.
