But Euan hasn' t been seen for ten years and there' s no trace of him anywhere . . . After accepting the help of Jamie Kildare - another blast from Anya' s past with very mysterious reasons for tracking down Euan - the pair set off to find The Back-Up Man. But why has Euan just disappeared? Will he remember their pact? And are some things better left in the past?
