Synopsis/Details
When Jake and Nina 'accidentally' kill their dealer, Jimmy, they have no idea the shit-storm they've just created. All Jake wants is to live a simple, quiet life. But their ill-conceived efforts to dump the body starts a chain of events that could trigger an all-out gangland war. This begins when two wayward teenagers – Sid and Toby – 'steal' the body of Jimmy for a practical joke, just as Jake and Nina are trying to get it back. Add to this mix Jimmy’s girlfriend (make that ex-girlfriend), Simone; and the revelation that Jimmy's dad – Vincent Pierce – is one the city's biggest crime lords. Vince is determined to find out what happened to his son, and God have mercy on anyone who gets in his way. Further add two relentless cops who are chasing down Jimmy’s sports car for a litany of speeding fines; Jensen, a detested high-school Principal; and Nicholas – Vince’s paid assassin with a secret he's desperately trying to hide from his boss. And then there's Billie. Jimmy's mother. You don't want to mess with Billie. She's Irish. Of course, all these threads come together at the end in a massive confrontation where the murder of Jimmy is avenged, and true love finds a way. Pity about Jensen, the High School Principle. But no-one liked him anyway.

I have written screenplays, stage plays and musicals, as well as albums of standalone songs. Novels and… Go to bio
