The port of Manchester is becoming the capital of the European drug trade. The powerful Colombian Cali cartel supplies drugs and weapons to a terrorist group linked to the IRA. Everything is used: brutal murders and betrayal, blackmail and bribery. The heroes of the novel are two siblings with completely different destinies, ideals, even surnames. They could only stop the international death dealers by overcoming the chasm separating them.

The novel begins in the nostalgic atmosphere of the Beatles era at the turn of the sixties, and then moves to the present day. This is purely English literature, in which the stories of the characters and events fascinate with their authenticity and psychological depth.
