It isn’t every day you help murder someone with poison in an illegal casino, whisk his body halfway across town in a Rolls Royce, after robbing him, then bury his body in tonnes of concrete underneath an international airport - all more or less with the co-operation of two detectives. Les Norton is back in town!

Trouble seems to follow Les Norton like a blue heeler after a mob of sheep.

Maybe it's his job. Being a bouncer at the infamous and illegal Kelly Club in King Cross isn't exactly the stuff life is made of. Maybe it's his friends. Like Price Galese, the urban and well-connected owner of the Kelly Club, or Eddie Salita, the hit man who learned to kill in Vietnam, or Reg Campbell, struggling artist and dope dealer.

But then again, maybe Les is just unlucky.

Five stories to entertain with laughter and excitement. As well as giving an insight into the Sydney underworld - a world often violent and criminal, but also with its fair share of rough humour and memorable characters.
