David Blake is back in Newcastle, running three cities, top boy. Life is
sweet until his bent accountant is arrested for murder. The money man
is nailed on for a life sentence until he puts five million pounds out
of Blake's reach. Now Blake faces an agonising choice; fix the acquittal
of a child killer or run out of the cash he needs to bankroll his
empire.
Meanwhile Serbian gangsters are slowly taking over his
territory and a crazed Russian Oligarch wants to use Blake's drug supply
line for his own ends. Back at home, the Police are closing in,
determined to take David Blake off the streets of Newcastle forever, and
Blake's girl Sarah is asking awkward questions about the death of her
father that he really doesn't want to answer.
As he fights for his
life, David Blake slowly uncovers a shocking truth about his own past,
turning over stones until he finally reveals a secret known only to The Dead.
