In snow-smothered Warsaw, Lee Case, a boozy English hack with a dark secret, starts a dangerous affair with a gangster's wife.

Case escapes to the sweltering Spanish heat where he meets a colourful cast of characters, including a mysterious torch singer and a former East End villain with a criminal business proposition. While in stormy Toulouse, he encounters a blast from the past that is positively seismic, which forces him to rethink his next steps.

The Grifter is a darkly comic shot of international noir from Paul D. Brazill.
