FRAMED
‘Framed’ is set in a world in which crime is organised, violent and the rewards are enough to make even the allegedly incorruptible think twice.
It’s 1999 London. ‘Mr Big’ is accused of being the brains behind a multi-million pound robbery in the City. He claims that he is the victim of a police frame up. And he’s credible.
It’s Slater’s first major case as a private detective after leaving the murky waters of ‘government service’ in Northern Ireland.
As a novice in the game, facing threats to his own life and the lives of those he loves – while dealing with multiple murders – his way of seeking justice is far from orthodox and not for the faint hearted. Can he deliver? Or is this Slater’s first case – and his last?
