Stranded in a foreign country, he is approached with a proposition: drive a car back to England.
All expenses paid, with extra cash at the end, enabling the owner to avoid a tax law.
Reaching the meeting point, he is surprised that the owner hasn’t shown as planned.
Not knowing what to do, he continues to his brother’s home, without realising the trouble he is about to bring to their doorstep.
To the horror of his law-abiding family, he is arrested for drug smuggling.
Once bailed, Sterne is determined to prove his innocence.
Deciding that the risk is worth it, he breaks the terms of his release and retraces his steps.
Little does he know, the crew that duped him are watching his every move and they are desperate to stop Sterne from exposing them.
Can Sterne obtain the proof he needs before the police realise he has left the country?
Or will the true criminals manage to prevent Sterne from compromising their operation?
Sterne is facing two options: lose his life to years behind bars or lose his life literally.
Is he capable of identifying a third option in which justice prevails?
In a situation where the police seem positive of his guilt, Sterne is determined to win.
Or die trying…
Presumption of Guilt is a powerfully gripping suspense novel which keeps you hooked until the final page.
