Guardian Bookshop Notes:

Irvine Welsh's latest novel, now in paperback, is a thriller about the corruption and abuse of the human soul, the possibilities of redemption, and deals with the challenging subject-matter of organised paedophile gangs. 'By some distance Welsh's most restrained and thoughtful work... The themes...are distressing, but Welsh's take is surprisingly considered and compassionate, and ultimately an old-fashioned moral one' "Times"

Publisher's description:

On vacation in Florida, he meets two women in a seedy bar, ending up at their apartment for a coke binge interrupted by two menacing strangers.
