Publisher's Synopsis

Ben, an Afghan Veteran given six months to live, crashes his Old Harley into the trailer Sanger was living in. But what Sanger did for the stranger who crashed into his trailer turns out to be the miracle that cured the veteran, giving him a new lease of life.
But when Sanger returns home to Sri Lanka, he gets abducted by a gang seeking money for his release. That's when Ben's new lease on life takes him on a wild and twisted journey in Sri Lanka, to help the man who saved him. In Sri Lanka, he befriends a local taxi driver, and the two of them follow the few leads they have. When all the leads fail and Ben is about ready to give up and return home, he tries his hand at cricket, and his baseball hitting talent sees him wallop the local hero's ball. Impressed by Ben's hitting, the local hero takes a liking to Ben and shares a new lead that breathes fresh life into Ben's mission. He finds himself wading through the world of gangs, police corruption and the ways of the Tamil Tigers.
Sanger was wanted by the government for starting the Tiger War. Did they find Sanger? Did they rescue him from the abductors? And why did Sanger return when he knew he was a wanted man in Sri Lanka? The search for these answers is through unending twists and turns, interwoven with real incidents of the war and the ways of the gangs there, and it makes for a suspense filled historical fiction.
