---

An alternative take on the classic hard-boiled novel. On the way home from a date, twenty-six year old Aidan Brown is beaten up by a gang of teenage hoodlums. Discharged from hospital with a few bruises, a battered face, and plenty of bad memories, Aidan arrives home to find an anonymously delivered purple box containing his stolen things. Who is the mysterious friend looking out for him? And how will he ever recover from the ordeal he's been put through without attaining the revenge he begins to crave so deeply? Ignoring advice to let it go, Aidan soon finds himself involved in an adventure that could transpire to be far more dangerous than he realises.
