Synopsis: Mike Ireland was a happily married man totally devoted to his wife and two lovely daughters, however when one of his daughters develops a life threatening disease in her liver, his world is turned upside down and he is faced with a huge dilemma. Her only chance of survival is a life saving operation in America by way of a transplant, providing a suitable donor can be found. Unfortunately the cost of this operation is astronomical, and far beyond the limits of his financial resources. His friend encourages him to use his position as Production Manager at a Printing Company to print counterfeit fifty pound notes, and along with a group of friends launder this money at various racecourses around the country, to raise the five hundred thousand pounds needed for the surgery. However things do not go according to plan, and they unwittingly get involved with various underworld criminals and drug dealers, as well as corrupt Politicians, Judges, and Bankers in their efforts to pull this off. A roller coaster of a ride follows in a trail of drug dealing, corruption, deceit, death and misery that knows no end.
