| Summary: | Meet Ripley Holden - family man, businessman, jack-the-lad, bully, trained at the school of hard knocks. Ripley is poised to make top dollar as Blackpool reinvents itself as the Las Vegas of the north, but life is never so simple. His son Danny is troubled, daughter Shyanne is rebellious and petulant and his wife Natalie feels neglected. His business partners are untrustworthy and the council planning committee unbribable and unreliable. When the body of a young man is found in Ripley's showpiece arcade, events begin to spiral out of control. Young D.I. Carlisle has got his teeth into Ripley's affairs, and has his eye on his wife. |
