In the middle of the afternoon on a busy downtown Toronto street a man is shot in the head behind the wheel of an SUV. The killer drives away before the light changes - it could be road rage, or it could be a random act of violence. It is, in fact, neither - it's opportunity for everyone involved. In the tradition of Christopher Brookmyre and Elmore Leonard, Dirty Sweet is a fast-paced crime story following each character to a very surprising end.
