Publisher's Synopsis
"Thirteen seconds was the perfect amount of time. Just enough to replay a life, to look at the detail of regret and close the mind to the beauty of success. Thirteen seconds was all it took for the myriad events of a lifetime to pass before the eyes of a dying man."
A man with 13 seconds to live; a war being fought against time; a drug addict getting cocky; a betrayed spouse seeking redemption in the arms of a prostitute; an author finding that for him, reality is slowly breaking down.
