Ollie Ewing is barely surviving. Back home in Sligo, he's collecting trolleys in a supermarket and living in a run-down house with a group of art students. He can't escape what happened in London. Tormented by old fears and regrets, he loses himself in everyday routine, kept going by his painfully black sense of humour.

Finally, Ollie steels himself to return to London to confront his demons. He re-enters a world of casual labour and protection rackets on the building sites; a world peopled by sinister figures such as Scots Bob and Silver John; an intimidating world of uncertain justice where violence will easily erupt.
