Description: Harpur and Iles go after the gangs who, in shooting at each other, accidentally gunned down a born-again Christian who was innocently posting tracts. Claud Montagne, the lurid crook who pimped Iles's favourite streetwalker Honoree, turns up dead in the car park of the notquite-respectable club he used to frequent. Harpur sets up a tough young woman to run an undercover job - despite the fact that Iles is adamantly, life-threateningly against undercover work. All is not well in the underworld.
