The first book in the Lee Southern series by award-winning author David Whish-Wilson.
Western Australia, 1988. After betraying the Knights bikie gang, seventeen-year-old Lee Southern flees to the city. Working as a rogue tow truck driver in Perth, he is captured by right-wing extremists whose combination of seduction and blackmail keeps him on the wrong side of the law and under their control. As the true nature of what drives his captors unfolds, Lee becomes an unwilling participant in a breathtakingly ambitious plot - and a cold-blooded crime that will show just how much he, and everyone else, still has to lose.
Gritty and unsettling, this noir crime novel is based on Perth's thriving Neo-Nazi movement of the late 1980s.
