Jack Manso is the head of the Firm. The Firm is organised crime. He is at the top in Britain and he's got there by threats, treachery, bribes and hideous violence. But, he wants more and so he approaches the New York Family for his final connection. Nothing matters to him except reaching the top of the heap and staying there. If you cross the Firm you may have your knees shattered by a shot-gun, or your girl-friend might be tortured. If you are lucky, or if Jack gives you another chance, you may just have your face slashed to the bone with a ground-down razor. Jack Manso is not a man to have as an enemy. Many people doubt whether he's even a man to have as a friend. Necessity forces one policeman to stand against Manso. Terry Sneed is the policeman who tries to break the 'Firm'. For Manso, his absolute power is tested-absolutely! Contents: Beginning of the End (Prologue) 1. Belated Conscription 2. The Performer 3. Little Firm 4. Short Trip 5. Territories 6.
