Life is flashing before the eyes of Danny Canyon, bound and bleeding in Saigon, memories of his upbringing in Glasgow's east end flash before him. He sees his brother Frankie, the hard man, sorting out Big Jim Cameron after he had taken a dislike to him...God, how he needs him now. But he has left his life in Glasgow behind, moved to Melbourne, married a Vietnamese refugee who he met in the meat packing factory on the day he got his first start in his new home. A chance to move away comes along and now he is now dabbling in the Saigon bar trade. The only problem for Danny is that the local mafia want a cut and Danny needs a hand. A big hand. Fortunately Frankie and his best mate Jimmy have got the call and are are beating a path to the rescue...God help Saigon!
