Released from prison unexpectedly early, John Mercer is introduced to Lenny Douglas, a police officer retired on the grounds of "ill health". He quickly realises his newfound freedom comes at a price. Douglas runs an unofficial operation with a single brief: dealing with untouchable criminals and disorganising crime. Mercer’s role is that of hitman.
On hand to help Mercer fulfil each hit are Calum, whose main interests are girls, drugs and music, and the sharp-tongued but seductive Rose, an ex-copper forced out of the police by scandal.
Can such a disparate team unit effectively to bring order where the law has failed, and what are the moral implications of their secretive operations?
