I Need a Word — Paul Stuart

We are a product of our genes and experience; nature and nurture. Thankfully, most of us have the right balance, but Quentin Legard's life is a mess. His criminal past is laid bare in this novel as he is forced to look in the mirror. He doesn't know that the highest authority in the land has decreed that he must face his demons and justice. Ray Quinn is on his tail and the climax is as stunning as it is unexpected.
