Terry Winsor's movie claims to be based on a true story and is in fact a fictional tale of events that may have led up to the discovery of the bodies of three men, shot to death in a Range Rover in Rettendon, Essex in December 1995.
Billy Reynolds (Charlie Creed-Miles) is a cabbie-in-training, and the film opens with him being hired to drive Jason Locke (Sean Bean) around on some 'errands', following his release from prison after a five-year stretch for armed robbery. Billy realises within minutes of them crossing paths that Jason is an extremely violent man. The relatively good pay and the glamour of being part of a major underworld gang soon seduce Billy, and he becomes hopelessly trapped in a downward spiral of drug deals and violence.
Billy's life becomes ever more complicated as he sinks ever deeper into the mire of crime. John Dyke (the excellent Tom Wilkinson, Oscar nominated for In the Bedroom) adds another complex layer to Billy's criminal family life as he tees up a major drug importation via a makeshift airstrip in the wilds of Essex. Lisa (Alex Kingston) is Jason's girlfriend, with a hard edge to her that spells trouble for any man she comes into contact with. Crosses and double-crosses abound, and with dodgy drug deals and some fairly graphic violence there is a constant undercurrent of mistrust throughout the film. Unfortunately for Billy, his naiveté prevents him from working out where his loyalties should lie, and when to run for cover.
