Publisher's Synopsis
"Roddy Doyle meets Carl Hiaasen." - INDEPENDENT ON SUNDAY What Detective Martin Murphy really wants is to get back on the streets, doing what he does best - fighting crime. But his medical file (already thick and growing fast) says he should be retired. Then his boss, Murdoch (one realistic eye on retirement, the other fantastically set on late-life promotion), offers him one final chance: to infiltrate a gang of diamond thieves. They are tough, violent and ruthless. And Murphy will fit in perfectly.
