New Year, 1948. One minute past midnight.
The window next to Detective Harry Taylor exploded in a shower of glass.
He switched to army training.
‘If hit, go down; count to thirty. If still breathing, you’re not dead.’
Harry is thrust again into the centre of the violent Sydney criminal scene
in hotspots such as Kings Cross, Woolloolmooloo, Surry Hills, The Rocks
and Marrickville.
Melbourne underworld figures are moving north into the Sydney suburbs
to get a share of the rich pickings of illegal gambling, prostitution, robbery
and drugs.
The ensuing turf wars result in murders, assaults, fire bombings,
drive-by shootings and disappearances. There’s been a contract taken out on Harry.
Who and why? Who can he trust?
With the help of a few friends Harry confronts the most dangerous crime networks in Australia.
With more antagonists than friends, it's up to Harry to solve the case.
