Synopsis
Maverick detective Dave Cunane steps in when he sees a thug knocking Marti King around. Now he wishes he hadn't. Marti's father, Vince, is doing life for a double murder, and she's looking for someone to prove his innocence. Dave makes tentative inquiries - and the bodies begin to pile up. Janine, Dave's partner, is getting increasingly impatient with the time he's spending with Marti. And the Carlyles, a powerful Manchester family, seem unhappy at the prospect of having Vince back on the streets. All Dave wants to do is pursue his business career and set up home with Janine - but to cool things down, Dave needs to find answers to questions no one wants asked.
