Henry Bane is dead. Long Live Henry Bane, his son. It's Manchester, 1998, and the funeral party is interrupted by a woman from Bane's past. Roisin is back in Manchester and back in Bane's life after an eight-year absence - inconvenient for Jan, his latest flame. Roisin has brought a wounded boyfriend with her - and a lot more trouble is following them up north. Meanwhile, a Yardie who goes by the name of 'Hagfish' wants to take over the local ganglords' territory with Mary, his terrifying weapon of choice. It's Hagfish against Bane in a new turf war: a war that will claim lives and cement vendettas. Bane tries to honour loyalties, old and new, but this quickly leads to more bloodshed, and a full-blown gang war reignites. It's a conflict steeped in half-forgotten history: a history that Bane and his onetime lover, Roisin, are forever tied to - and which ties them together.
