Former cop Tom McEwan, now employed in Glasgow as a private investigator, is tasked with English investigator Gavin Blakestock to trace and identify extortionists threatening to contaminate food products sold by a Birmingham based, UK retail company. However, fearing adverse publicity and financial ruin, the company Board strictly hamper McEwan and Blakestock’s investigation with the firm instruction not to involve any other agency, including the police. Set an almost impossible task, the two men race against the deadline set by the resolute extortionists who will stop at nothing to achieve their aim.
Meanwhile, police in Glasgow commence the investigation into the murder of a sixteen-year-old girl found strangled in the north side of the city.
Seemingly, nothing connects either inquiry; however, unbeknown to McEwan and Blakestock and the murder investigation, a beaten and abused wife might just be the key.
