You are invited to meet Michael Robotham when he introduces his chilling new psychological thriller Life or Death.

Michael Robotham has nurtured Life or Death for twenty years - ever since he read a newspaper report of a man who had served a long prision sentence, but escaped the day before he was due to be released. Why? Ten years after the publication of his first novel Robotham has brought all his skill and experience to the telling of this extraordinary story.

Audie Palmer has spent a decade in prison for an armed robbery in which four people died, including two of his gang. Seven million dollars has never been recovered and everybody believes that Audie knows where the money is. For ten years he has been beaten, stabbed, throttled and threatened by fellow inmates and prison guards - but suddenly he vanishes, the day before he's due to be released.

Everybody wants to find Audie, but he's not running. Instead he's trying to save a life...a not just his own.
