NOTES

Former Hell's Angel Jake Murray turns his life around when he gets out of jail and returns to the mean streets of Glasgow. But society is unforgiving for an ex-con with a record of violence. Limited to low-paid jobs that barely cover the cost of living, he sets up shop as a private investigator and downloads a fake license to prove it.One day an ex-teacher hires him to find her missing granddaughter. She offers free advertisement instead of cash as she can't afford his modest fee. He agrees and risks jail time as he uses violence to get answers.He attracts the attention of the city's biggest gangsters who threaten to kill him unless he gives up the case. But he has discovered the girl features in a snuff film. It leaves him with an ultimatum-fight or flee. An easy decision beforehand, but now he has hooked up with an old flame and wants to stay alive.What begins as a straightforward case becomes a complex battle between cowardice and bravery, and he also finds himself torn between love and honour
