Synopsis

Maverick detective Dave Cunane steps in when he sees a thug knocking Marti King around, but his actions are misinterpreted not only by her heavy-duty relatives but also his own nearest and dearest - Martis one of those girls you shouldn't get involved with. When Dave comes across her again, he learns that her father, Vince, is doing life for a double murder, and she's looking for someone to prove his innocence. Dave makes tentative enquiries - and the bodies begin to pile up. Neither he nor the Manchester Police can make sense of the killings, only Dave's become a little too close to them to be free from suspicion. Meanwhile Janine, Dave's partner, is getting increasingly impatient with the time he's spending with Marti. Clyde Harrow, a TV celeb with career problems, is planning to use Dave as a source of colourful local stories. And the Carlyles, a powerful Manchester family and Marti's in-laws, seem unhappy at the prospect of having Vince back on the streets. All Dave wants to do is pursue his business career and set up home with Janine, but he just can't shake off the attentions of Marti, Clyde or the Carlyle family.
