Publisher Description: Sharman's Christmas with his daughter Judith starts with the worst of gifts: news that his ex-wife Laura, her new husband, and their baby son have been killed in a bomb explosion on a plane. Sharman and Judith seek what little consolation they can from each other, but she instinctively knows that Sharman needs to take his mind off things. Pushed by her, he accepts a seemingly straightforward, if unlovely job babysitting a big-time American dealer who is in custody but doing one last deal--only this time on the right side of the law. But when Sharman's around, babysitting is one step away from carnage and disaster; wanted by the police, he turns for help from the most unlikely of sources--the Yardie gangs that infest the estates of "sarf London." What begins as work turns to vengeance for his ex-wife's murder and battle to save the innocence--and life--of his daughter. |
