Life in the safe suburbs of Christchurch isn't dangerous enough for Marty. He needs excitement, and goes looking for it in punk, protest, politics and crackpipes.

Marty soon finds Mona, a teenage runaway living in a flophouse of skinheads and goths. The two live for drugs and dodgy deals, but they are minnows compared to savage siblings Jade and Shayna.

Meanwhile, war has broken out among the bikers Marty and Mona depend on for their daily fix. Fuelling the fight is 'King Kong' Chong, a thug determined to be Number One in the 0h-3.

Swimming between the sharks is Winston, Marty's baby brother, who has big plans. When Winston gets in over his head, it's up to Marty to try and pull him out of a neo-Nazi nightmare before their family becomes a target.
