House of Birds (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798642980873)

Recovering from the wounds of his first mission, Liverpool delinquent-turned-government spy Azo Coke has scarcely made his way from hospital to the pub before trouble comes looking for him again.A local gangster with a grudge, a pushy newspaper reporter, Becky Suarez, and his own shadowy spymaster, Paterson - everyone is after Azo as he gets back on the trail of the extremist gang he thought he had beaten. And then there's Leanne, his punchy ex and mother of his estranged toddler son, Ali.Forced by Paterson to work undercover on the promise of seeing Ali, Azo tracks the gang as it regroups for a fresh plot. Soon he is fighting not only for his son but for the refugees and captives the gang holds in the depths of its House of Birds - including Azo's own one-time girlfriend, Maya.In tunnels and cellars in the city's underbelly, they are kept hidden by Dicey, a ghostly woman with connections to the local church and a spooky fascination with Azo; and by one of the gang's most brutal members, Rodney, the last man standing when Azo broke up their previous plot. He's had it in for Azo from the day they met. When contacts close to Azo start turning up dead, he knows he risks falling back into Rodney's clutches.Azo's mission to find Maya and foil the latest attack on Liverpool takes him on a terrifying underground quest into the city's past and closer to the truth of his own identity. After the acclaimed House of Lads, House of Birds is the second in a series of explosive Azo Coke thrillers by Merseyside-born writer Roland Lloyd Parry
