Running a small hotel with an old informant of his (a dubious pairing if ever there was one), his friend Tomboy, asked him to do one last "job" which soon led the sticky end of Billy West, a crim associate from the old days. In his last words, West confessed to killing Asif Malik in a cafe along with another man. Malik had been a friend and respected colleague of Milne in his "good co...more

As an introduction, the author gives his reasons for reviving the character of Dennis Milne, cop turned hitman, who first featured in The Business of Dying, another none-too-subtly titled Kernick book which I admit I had not read.
