Overview

Wisecracking social worker Stella Hardy returns, and this time she's battling outlaw bikie gangs, corrupt cops, and a powerful hunger for pani puri. On a stormy Halloween night, Stella gets a call from her best friend, Detective Phuong Nguyen. Phuong has a problem. Or rather her lover, Bruce Copeland, does. Copeland has been implicated in a police-corruption scandal, and the only person who can help prove his innocence has disappeared. The missing man is Isaac Mortimer, a drug dealer associated with the notorious motorcycle gang The Corpse Flowers. Reluctantly, Stella offers to help track him down - and it isn't long before she is way in over her head- evading bikies, drinking tea with drug dealers, and, worst of all, hanging out in the Macca's carpark with a bunch of smart-alec teenagers. Then, when Stella discovers that local street kids are being groomed for some sinister purpose - and that a psychopath with bust face tattooed across his knuckles is pursuing her - she realises she has her work cut out for her. Sounds easy, right? Too easy.
