This is a raw, honest and amusing look at travelling through Asia and India. The true story of an Australian man on the run from himself, and a hit man, which sinks the reader into the swirling madness and paradoxical horror and beauty of India, portrayed without sentiment. Fleeing his shady Australian past, Aaron Smith travels to India and encounters a murder mystery, witnesses the tragic death of a friend, dodges terrorist attacks and a revolution and befriends a colourful cast of fellow characters fit for a Bollywood flick.
