Overweight musician Murphy Kennedy is not in the business of trafficking drugs, guns, or any other illegal contraband.

A fairly safe and uneventful occupation under normal circumstances, but when an expensive Amati violin is stolen en route, his quest to get it back changes everything. The mild-mannered Londoner finds himself facing the wrath of the Chinese Triads, Yardies and a host of criminal elements in both cities, and it is soon clear that this is about more than a missing violin.
