By Conscience Bound Vm Frost

Malta - 1975. Sean Toothe, an emaciated kid, holds onto his dying mother's hand as she exhorts him to look after his five-year old brother after she's gone. The kid's fourteen-years old and with his mother gone, he's under the "care" of his brutal step-father. Making his colourful escape from the island, he turns his back on the life of hunger and beatings and with the arrogance of youth, easily forgets the promise he'd made. Fast forward twenty years, when a visitor brings Sean devastating news of the brother he'd abandoned. The promise he'd made to his mother and the nagging conscience so desperately in need of salving, plunges him headlong into a whirlwind adventure which brings him into contact with an evil underworld inhabited by violent gangsters, drug barons and... the love of a beautiful woman. By Conscience Bound is a heartbreaking story of love, adventure and bitter revenge. It sprints internationally and breathlessly through time and memory before inevitably hurtling to its spectacular and brutal climax.
