The Shadows: Priest Lies Down

Alex Priest laughs a lot but he is in a deep hole and not only his life depends on him finding a way out. He's a drug dealer whose rich customers are being poached by a new organisation, and that firm doesn't stop at threats. They are ready to kill him, his sweet wife and his friends.

Alex lives by a code, and it's this which slowly leads him into situations he cannot control. He sells drugs to a select clientèle, his world is limited to the bars he visits, his customers and his wife. It is a quiet life punctuated by the visits he has to make to his supplier, the disturbing Mr Browning.

The main characters are Karen, Alex's moody but beautiful wife; Rocco, a seedy bar owner; Cooney, a larger-than-life dealer; and Estelle, Cooney's voluptuous wife and the owner of another bar; Browning, the bird-like dealer; Gerry, Alex's only friend; Cophlan, a small time creep; and Ross, the darkness from out of town.

The Shadows: Priest Lies Down is a thriller unlike any you have ever read....believe it. What happens when a guy finds himself in a world he cannot control? What does it mean to have a loaded pistol thrust into your mouth? that's what you'll discover in this first instalment of the Priest series.
