Book description
It's 1976 and England is sweating its nuts off. As an unrelenting heat
wave beats down on the nation, the residents of Horse's Arse - aka
Handstead New Town, north Manchester - are reaching melting point. The
Park Royal Mafia, having recovered from the loss of its senior members,
is under new management and open for the business of mindless violence
again. Unfortunately their antics have attracted the attention of a
psychotic Turkish gangster, who's decided the Mafia is just what he
needs to pull himself to the top of the criminal heap. And wading into
the middle of it are the Grim Brothers, Psycho, Pizza, Ally - Horse's
Arse's finest and the hardestboiled coppers you'll ever meet. With this
lot hot under the collar it's all going to end in blood, (a lot of)
sweat and tears. Charlie Owen enjoyed a thirty-year career in the
police service, serving with two forces in the Home Counties and London,
reaching the rank of Inspector.
