It's 1968 and a young gangster is taken under the wing of Freddie
Mays, the quintessential East End gangleader. Though Freddie is young
he has already earned himself a chilling moniker, the 'Butcher of
Mayfair', and a great wad of cash. Gangster begins working for Freddie,
collects debts here, breaks a few legs there, but soon has his eyes on the bigger prize - to be Gangster No.1. To be like Freddie. Soon Gangster is plotting his ascent, murdering fellow gang members and precipitating an internecine gang war on his way up the ladder.
