The regular dose of abuse and violence inflicted on her now reclusive, inebriated mother is too much to bear.

Both will stop at nothing to regain the prize that Carrie-Anne is unaware she has. Who will help her now? And what is the connection to the Chinese Year of the Rabbit?

The chase is on; a mind game of complex riddles that will subsequently lead to the whereabouts of the prize...but at what cost?
