North London gangster Tommy Spillane may have walked free after a high-profile murder trial, but Detective Chief Inspector Sandra Bates is convinced he’s guilty—and she won’t rest until he pays for his crimes.

Meanwhile, the notorious hitman Danny Mason has disappeared, presumed dead. In his place, a fresh face emerges. Jack Clay—young, ruthless, and terrifyingly ambitious—is ready to carve out his own reputation. Under Spillane’s guidance, he’s more than just a soldier in the game; he’s a weapon, sharpened and deadly. And when an explosive clash with rival Yardie gangsters threatens the entire firm, Jack must prove that he’s not just new

blood—he’s the future.

The battle for power will be brutal. Some will survive. Some will die. One thing is certain—Jack Clay won’t go down without a fight.

With tighter storytelling, richer character depth, and even more

explosive tension, this version cements Jack Clay’s place as a rising legend in the London underworld.
