Shady Business

A brilliant criminal farce by Robin Hawdon in which no one tells the whole truth, time slips away relentlessly, and one bed becomes the center of mafia chaos.

In the elegant apartment of an influential gangster, a group of people meet - connected by chance, or by a very carefully planned intrigue. Big Mack runs businesses best left unquestioned, Terry the Razor is happy to solve problems by force, Marry tries to control the chaos, and Tania is losing patience with the men around her. The situation is complicated by the arrival of the mysterious Laura - a woman who is attractive, intelligent, and far too confident for a chance acquaintance. What seems like an innocent dinner quickly turns into an avalanche of misunderstandings, suspicions, and increasingly absurd lies.

Disguises, false identities, financial scams, and romantic complications create a mixture that drives the action from the first to the last minute. One small lie leads to another, and when big money, love, jealousy, and fear of exposure enter the game - chaos is guaranteed.
