August 1945: the Japanese have surrendered and there's dancing in
the streets of Sydney. But Billy Glasheen has little time to
celebrate; his black marketeer boss has disappeared, leaving Billy
high and dry. Soon he s on the run from the criminals and the cops,
not to mention a shady private army. They all think he has the
thing they want, and they'll kill to get hold of it. Unfortunately
for Billy, he doesn't know what it is . . . but he'd better find it
fast. Set in Australia in the years following World War II, Peter
Doyle's novels brilliantly explore the criminal underworld,
political corruption, and the postwar explosion of sex, drugs, and
rock'n'roll.
