Read Escape Storyline:
1987. Two Italian prisoners escape prison in a rubbish lorry. Parting company, Carlo heads for Milan, while Filippo treks north over the mountains. When Carlo is killed in a shoot-out during a bank robbery – and under deeply suspicious circumstances – a massive manhunt is launched. Frightened for his own safety, Filippo flees to Paris, where he’s assisted by Italian political exiles and finds work as a security guard. Long, lonely hours lead him to recall a story told to him by Carlo in prison – the explosive account of a former leader of the Red Brigades – and Filippo begins to devote his evenings to writing it down. His landlady, Cristina, finds him a publisher and the book becomes an instant bestseller. Carefully coached by his publishers, Filippo steadfastly refuses to admit that the book is anything other than fiction, but the public don’t believe him. Nor do the police. Trapped by fate and his own efforts to evade the truth, Filippo must accept that his assumed identity carries far greater risks than his own. As the tension builds, ex-journalist Lisa – Carlo’s one-time lover – becomes convinced that Carlo’s death was no accident. It’s not long before her investigations begin to expose a complex trail of corruption and political manoeuvres, with potentially fatal consequences. Chilling, eye-opening and utterly compelling, Escape poses questions and questions values, twisting and turning to reaching a climax that will leave you breathless.Pages of Escape :
