This is the true story of a private detective / bodyguard operating in Brisbane, Australia during the 1970s amongst some of the most deadly gangster cops and endemic corruption that could ever have existed. Murder, firebombs, 'disappearances', kidnappings, 'overdoses', police verballing, extortion, prostitution, drug running - all operating not only with police management knowledge but in fact under their control.

Refusing a bribe by a top cop leads to several attempts on his well-being and life, and finally a myriad of false criminal charges in an attempt to destroy his veracity, but he survived and it's not the first time nor will it be the last.
