Description: DC Paul Winter is working undercover to infiltrate the inner circle of the city's premier drug baron, Bazza Mackenzie. Adrift in a brutal world of hard-won respect and easy money, Winter appears to be in his element. Worryingly so. But headquarters' concerns about Winter become supplanted by two high profile Portsmouth murders: a visiting property developer is shot dead with clinical efficiency, and a government minister visiting the city is assassinated by two helmeted motorcyclists. DI Faraday, Winter's erstwhile boss, is involved in both enqiries and finds that there is evidence which implicates the beleaguered Paul Winter. The relationship between the two men has never been easy, but now the time has come to bury their differences.
