Harry is approached by Gina Hawkes, a lawyer looking for a missing alibi witness for her client - the witness being an old acquaintance of his, the long-term criminal Joe Collins. The case reminds Harry of his own brief criminal past as a getaway driver for his older brother; a venture that ended with the passing of his brother and their associate Hillman in a robbery that went horribly wrong. The guilt Harry feels from this incident drives him to uncover what went awry in a seemingly simple operation. His only lead is that he knows the huggings were commissioned by a man named Styles. Tom Russell, the policeman who led the investigation all those years ago, is back on Harry's case, and with the past swiftly unravelling at every turn, Harry begins to question exactly who Gina is and why she chose him. A visit to Gina's physician, Dr Sturgess, with a view to stealing Gina's personal details, ends with Harry making a quick exit after the hostile doctor comes at him with a needle, adding yet more uncertainty and intrigue to the situation Harry has found himself in. Circumstances become even more puzzling when, on arriving back at the office, Harry receives an anonymous phone call telling him to immediately vacate the building.
