London, 1969 The Beatles, the Rolling Stones, the Who ... Tin Pan Alley is the heart of London's music scene. It is also the dark heart of a ruthless business tainted by sex, drugs and corruption.

But Holborne is getting married in two weeks, and for some reason DS Sean Sloane, his best man, refuses to speak to him. Has Sloane been turned? What has a select group of corrupt Met officers known as 'the Team' to do with the case?
