Nick is an innocent stranger, working in a shop and going out with his friends - living for the weekend. On the whole an ordinary, mundane, boring life in many ways, but he's content.

Myles is an ex-IRA member, now a notorious Irish gangster - feared by all the gangs in the UK and Ireland. Murder, kidnapping and extortion are his livelihood; he is not to be crossed.
