Synopsis

Based on the true story of PC John Higgins - a "pretty policeman" whose evidence convicted twelve ordinary men for what was a victimless crime. He gained their trust and was invited to their private party. On Higgin's evidence they felt the full weight of the law and were treated worse than murderers.

But was he really undercover, or was it just a cover-up? To bury deep and shameful desires and protect the Police's reputation? This is a carefully researched tale of love, temptation and betrayal in Victorian England, told from the point of view of Higgins, his wife Annie, and of his close friend Bill Kilroy, who spent the rest of his life in a lunatic asylum. It is gritty, lyrical and moving.
