Publisher's Synopsis
Nick Sharman's gone to ground since his daughter returned to Scotland. Nothing will tempt him back into the business again; unless it's money. That, and a story to touch his heart. And Ray Miller's got plenty of both.
Miller, a Lottery Rollover double-jackpot winner, wants to find the wife who left him and his three-year-old son. This should be a simple task for Sharman, giving him an easy five grand and evidence for Judith, his daughter, that he's trying to get his life together.
When Miller's wife, Sharon, turns out to be a heroin-addicted whore, Sharman's fate appears to be sealed. The news of Ray Miller's new-found wealth has brought out South London's worst villains, eager to relive him of his readies. The most unpleasant of these - Adult Baby Albert and Mr Freeze - decide the best way to get what they want is to use Sharon to prise it from Miller. And Sharman, the patsy, is primed to take the fall.
