Never open the package.
Chase is a courier and he should be dead, killed by the package he was carrying. Except someone got to it first, and replaced the bomb with a cell phone and a loaded gun. When it starts ringing, and Chase breaks the golden rule of the job, the stranger on the other end of the line tells him that she's saved his life.
And that he now has the chance for revenge and the tools to take it, if he wants. For all he has, and all he'd leave behind.
REVIEWS:
“Fast paced, well structured plot and excellently written, ‘All You Leave Behind’ is a great novella which proves difficult to not want to read in one sitting.” – Luca Veste, author of Then She Was Gone
“This is an impressively sleek novella, written in stripped down prose with not a word out of place. The characters are well drawn, the plotting pacy, and [Rickards] creates such a pervasive atmosphere that you can almost taste the smell of dead junky.” – Eva Dolan, author of This Is How It Ends
“All You Leave Behind reminds me of the feel of good cyberpunk, particularly in the almost mythic aspects of Chase’s protector, and the way that’s expressed around the city by rumour, whispers, mysterious paintings. Add in a breakneck pace and it’s an interesting mix and a very good read.” – Iain Rowan
