A Scottish crime thriller laced with intrigue, deception, blackmail, betrayal, and bloody murder.
Angel, the star pole dancer at Teasers nightclub is savagely murdered in her bed.
Tony Palmer is the main figure in Dundee's underworld and has many business interests both legal and illegal. His pride and joy is his nightclub Teasers where he spends much of his time. His life was disrupted earlier in the year when his daughter, Denise was murdered. The story is contained within a previous novel Dead Wood. When this happened, Tony stopped philandering with his pole dancing employees to remain faithful to his wife.
But that all changed and Tony's life became a disaster zone when he woke up in bed next to the dead body of Angel, the dancer with whom he'd previously had a fling. He has no memory of how he got there although he had escorted Angel home after she was threatened in Teasers by Jimmy Matthews, a Glasgow gangster. Tony doesn't think he killed Angel although in his befuddled state of mind he can't be totally sure. He removes all evidence of his presence there and returns home.
DS Bill Murphy has been itching for enough evidence to convict Tony and is involved in the investigation into Angel's murder. He is convinced Tony is responsible and pursues him hoping to find enough to finally convict him.
Jimmy Matthews, the gangster who accosted Angel, is also on Tony's trail. He has designs on Teasers and is determined to acquire Tony's businesses through the use of force. He has previous form for this having left an Edinburgh nightclub owner wheelchair-bound after a violent takeover. Matthews focuses on getting to Tony through his wife, Madge, who has been suffering from depression since the murder of her daughter.
Tony is caught up in a web of events. The police are closing in. DS Bill Murphy is hot on his trail, Jimmy Matthews and his gang are circling, and his wife is in danger. He has to find Angel's killer before he is swallowed up by these events.
Intrigue, deception, blackmail, betrayal, and bloody murder. A fast-paced Scottish thriller where nothing is ever the way it seems.
