Publisher's Synopsis
Greed is an emotion, but avarice is a behaviour.
Sometimes those who want too much end up with
nothing at all. Stephen and Tony have hidden their
past lives for a decade. They soon discover that they
are not the only ones who have secrets. Matty and
Christina, in an Anglo-Calabrian marriage, are driven
by a desire to prove that they are successful.
Christina's loyalty draws them back to the clutches of
her family in Italy.
Featuring lorry theft, money-laundering, bribery,
witness protection, people smuggling, drugs and
family dynamics, this story plays out in the dark and
brooding Morecambe Bay, Glasgow, and seductive
Catanzaro. Events force everyone to reflect on what
they want from life.
