"Jimmy started off a good Catholic altar boy. Yet growing up in Irish London meant walking between poverty and temptation, and what he learnt on the street wasn’t anything taught by his Church. As a cop, he did what he could to keep his patch clean, and if some called him corrupt and violent, his record was spotless and his arrest rates were high. It’s a long time since he left the Force and disappeared, and now Jimmy is trying to go straight. But his past is about to catch up with him. When one of the volunteers at the homeless shelter where he works is brutally murdered, a bent copper tips off the most powerful crime lord in London that Jimmy is back in town. However, Jimmy has his own motives for staying put... and can he find the killer before the gangs find him?" --Publisher.
