Synopsis

In this sequel to the critically acclaimed true crime cult thriller, The Painter, we are dragged back into the world of a South London hitman: shocking violence, secrecy, intrigue, brutality, high finance, conspiracy and the drudgery of everyday criminal graft are par for the course as our ‘anti-hero’ reflects on his fascinating past.

We follow him as he tries to escape London in the late 1980s - primarily to try and preserve his sanity - only to be thrust into a chaotic situation on the South Coast. He is forced to become even more ruthless to protect himself and the powerful Underworld Fixer who controls him.

As our anti-hero starts to realise that he’s signed a deal with The Devil, he has to come to terms with the fact that he’s become a monster, and desperately tries to plan a redemptive future for himself, but he can only stand by and watch as his dreams and mental health are shattered by situations that are out of his control.

No matter how hard he tries to escape the organised criminal life, the more he is trapped inside its complexity. The ghosts of his victims are haunting him both night and day, and he must decide whether he can continue killing for money and what the consequences will be if he chooses to hang up his gun. Based on true events,

The Painter 2 is blackly comic, riveting, suspenseful and perfectly captures the last ‘golden age’ of the London underworld. Told in a colourful, very entertaining anecdotal style, The Painter 2 is a page-turner that never takes its hand off the throttle and immerses the reader in a much-misunderstood culture that could only be told by someone who knows where the bodies are buried.
