Summary
London is gripped by the bloodiest outbreak of gang warfare ever seen. Shootings in the street, kidnappings, bombs and car chases have become commonplace.
The gutters are running red with blood and the Police are powerless to stop it. Frank Harrison had ruled gangland unopposed for more than two years and yet someone is out to wipe him and his men from the face of the earth. Who and why?
The answer, when it comes, will test not just Harrison's courage but his sanity too. For him, there is only one way to fight back against an enemy he can barely believe he faces.
So into this world of violence, corruption, madness and death comes the Assassin. A force more powerful than vengeance, more lethal than a lorry full of high velocity weapons and more terrifying than any nightmare...
Shaun Hutson is one of the UK's best known horror writers and author of over 50 books. He made his name with best-sellers such as Spawn and Relics – acquiring the nicknames 'The Godfather of Gore' and 'The Shakespeare of Gore' in the process – and has since written a number of dark urban thrillers as well.
He has also written for radio, magazines, television and novelized a couple of Hammer Horror films.

Love Shaun!!
As an avid horror reader I discovered Shaun Hutson age 14 from my Dads private bookcase. I subsequently learned my Dad had met Shaun and along with Brian Pithers (Renegades) was the inspiration for a character (white Ford capri driver, cant remember which book) in other books, and read those signed books to absolute death and loved every minute. This is one of my favourites combining the crime and horror genres that Shaun wrote in his earlier career.
Unfortunately, Audible have chosen a bored stoner to narrate it, not to mention it being badly edited (I know these books inside out) Makes a great book hard to listen to...

Great trash horror-be warned-edited
I’ve loved this book since it first came out and have revisited it many times
I bought it on audible as soon as I saw it
The horror at listening to a edited version 😵
The ruin of a great book
