In a Europe riven into a hundred tiny principalities, chef Rudi is drawn into a new career with a shadowy organisation that will move anything across any state line - for a price. Soon, he's in a world of high-risk smuggling operations, where kidnappings and double-crosses are as natural as a map that constantly redraws itself.

A visionary thriller set in a future where Europe has fractured into countless tiny nations, this is a cross between John le Carre and Franz Kafka.
