Description

Daisy Lane's nightclub is bringing in money, helped by her connections to notorious gangster Roy Kemp. But then Daisy's fortunes take a spectacular fall when Roy decides to move his criminal empire to London. Roy's frequent presence in Daisy's club gave the place an air of glamour - and danger. Without him, the punters have disappeared and so too has the cash.

Still, Daisy can take comfort in the fact that her son, Eddie, is growing up to be as courageous and spirited as his late father was. But Eddie's younger brother, Jamie, reveals himself to be a deeply disturbed young man, sadistic in nature and capable of the most brutal violence and it falls to Eddie to stand up to his brother and prevent his behaviour from spiralling fatally out of control. Meanwhile, there's a killer at work in Gosport - a handsome Italian who preys on lonely women, taking all they have and then leaving them for dead...
