Outrageous newspaper reporter Llew Sabler is back - and he's gone rogue... Portsmouth. England. Late 1990s. Llew Sabler has it a woman he loves, a job he loves, friends he loves. But when local crook Rollo Baer dies in a fire, Llew's law-breaking past catches up with him. His paper sacks him, his soul-mate Thirza Kirkby disowns him (again) and his grief-stricken girlfriend - Rollo's daughter, Lucy - is lost to him. Dazed, Llew drifts into the sleepy backwaters of corporate journalism, and slowly loses the will to live. But life takes a dramatic turn when his oldest pal, Emdel Black, introduces him to the dark arts of computer hacking. Together they discover Rollo Baer was killed, who did it, and that the murder is being covered up by crooked Freemason cops. Dark forces soon gather - first to thwart Llew's bid to expose the truth, and then to silence him for good. With his life hanging by a thread, and all seemingly lost, salvation and justice come from a most unexpected source. Splash is a darkly comic crime thriller full of characters that will stay with you long after the tale is told.
