Lennox is a private investigator who treads a fine line between the law and those who break it-a dangerous thing to do in 1950s Glasgow where only the toughest and most ruthless survive.
Bookie and greyhound breeder Jimmy 'Small Change' MacFarlane runs one of the biggest operations at Glasgow's dog-racing track. When MacFarlane is bludgeoned to death with a bronze statue of Danny Boy, his best racer, Lennox finds himself in the frame for the murder. Luckily he has a solid gold alibi-he spent the night with MacFarlane's daughter.
Lennox finds himself drawn into the hunt for MacFarlane's killer, and soon discovers the victim was into a lot more than dog racing. Worse, crime boss Willie Sneddon, one of Glasgow's notorious Three Kings, is involved somehow and he's not a man that Lennox wants to cross.
But somewhere out there in the shadows lurks a really big player, an elusive villain who makes the Three Kings look like minnows. Lennox thinks he can track him down. But he wouldn't bet on it.
