'The story follows Johnny and his friend Pete, a couple of standover men, lurking at the bottom of the criminal food chain in 1950s Brisbane. Both ruthless, they share a dislike for the Irish immigrants now fighting to improve their lives - and who have carved out their own niche in the local underworld. At first all goes according to plan, but then the night takes a turn neither of them expects...' (One Book Many Brisbanes : Fifth Anthology of Brisbane Stories p. 60)
