Unstoppable Mancunian hitman-for-hire Rawhead finally meets his match in a female assassin who calls herself "The Spirit of Darkness".

Struggling author Billy Dye accepts a commission to ghost the memoirs of Manchester gangster Malcolm Priest. But Priest soon wearies of Billy and his big mouth and hires his favourite hitman to take the writer out. However, the potential killer, `Rawhead`, turns out to be a schoolfriend Billy hasn`t seen for twenty years, so he spares Billy`s life and hides him away instead in an old dark house. When a furious Priest learns that Billy is still alive, he lays a trap for Rawhead himself, and there begins an ugly contest. As the violence escalates, Billy soon suspects that his old friend is a terrifying psychopath who will literally stop at nothing to protect him. And when Rawhead starts to take an unwelcome interest in Billy`s writing career, no one in publishing is safe...
