Thrille set in Birmingham: ''you want it down and dirty? Up the arse or right between the eyes? Then Scully's your man''.

''The Little Moscow, a shady basement bar at the side of the Grand Union canal in Birmingham, stamping ground for thieves, gangsters and conmen - plus some of the city's more glamorous creatures. Blue-skinned Nathan, a hardknock tattooist, refuses to pay Crawford's protection racket. Nearby, a refugee from Middle Eastern wars finds a body hanging from a lamppost and becomes entangled with a goodtime girl called Veronica and an apartment decorated with abstract art. Roles get reversed, debts get claimed and colours collide - while two would-be Andy Warhols make away with incriminating evidence''.
