Newly married to his childhood sweetheart and happily settled in the home of their dreams in Glasgow, private inquiry agent Oz blackstone is looking for a touch of the unexpected in his life. When he's introduced to the seven-foot, granite-muscled figure of Everett Davis, champion wrestler and head of the Global Wrestling Alliance, he knows he's found it.
After a series of terrible accidents in the ring, Everett is convinced that someone is out to sabotage his business before it can take on the big boys and go global so, in the unlikely guise of ringside Master of Ceremonies, Oz tries to unmask the perpetrator.
But, as he begins to discover the dangerous reality behind the glittering facade, a string of accidents becomes murder, and suddenly Oz has to wrestle with the biggest challenge of his life.

Quintin Jardine was born once upon a time in the West - of Scotland rather than America, but still he grew to manhood as a massive Sergio Leone fan. On the way there he was educated, against his will, in Glasgow, where he ditched a token attempt to study law for more interesting careers in journalism, government propaganda, and political spin-doctoring. After a close call with the Brighton Bomb in 1984, he moved into the even riskier world of media relations consultancy, before realising that all along he had been training to become a crime writer. Now, forty novels later, he never looks back.
Along the way he has created/acquired an extended family in Scotland and Spain. Everything he does is for them.
He can be tracked down through his blog: http://quintinjardine.me
