Rat's Tale - Hamelin's Child, #4

Lenny's turned his back on the past. In return for police protection and a lighter sentence, he's grassed up his old gangland boss and he's hoping that eventually he'll be free to start a new life with Amanda. But the past isn't giving up on him yet. New man on the block Mick Carlotti fancies himself as a crime lord - he doesn't have the contacts or the business acumen, but he knows a man who does.
He also knows exactly how to get Lenny to play ball. Caught between Carlotti's rock and the hard place of a life sentence for a murder he didn't commit, Lenny's running out of choices. Turning his life around is going to be a lot harder than he thinks. Set just after events in Calling the Tune, this shorter novella is Lenny's story and contains adult material. (approx 47, 000 word novella)
