Based on the book by one time Essex Boys gang member Bernard O'Mahoney - In the aftermath of the infamous 'Essex Boys' Range Rover killings, a group of younger, flashier criminals emerge to fill the power vacuum. RICKY PERCIVAL - kingpin of his own thriving drugs empire; DAMON ALVIN - an arrogant loudmouth with a short fuse; and DEAN BOSHELL - a small time thief, prepared to go to any lengths to be accepted. Their ambitions are fuelled by ego, greed and a lust for power that will not only tear their friendship apart but end in tragedy and the ultimate injustice.
