Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

In the shadows under the bridge, with the Weymouth to Waterloo express just minutes away, the father and son lower a trainee reporter's unconscious body across the tracks. All Jude Devlin ever wanted was to be a good journalist; to write stories and see his name in print in his local free newspaper. Instead, Jude had stumbled over a career-defining story, a scandal that could bring down the criminal family that ruled the city and expose police corruption that prevented anyone from doing anything about it. But to land that story he would have to put himself and those he loved in danger. It's the late 80's, Thatcher's Britain where the miners have been beaten, the war against the IRA is at its height and the one against AIDS is beginning. It's a country where money talks, bullshit walks and you are either one of us or one of them. To the notorious and secretive Quirk family, Jude is one of them. His efforts to expose matriarch Debs Quirk and her three sons and uncover who, inside the police, is protecting the family, threatens to destroy their criminal empire. Jude must be disposed of.
