SYNOPSIS __________
Plot:
Based upon JJ Connelly's London crime novel, "Layer Cake"
is about a successful cocaine dealer (Craig) who has earned
a respected place among England's Mafia elite and plans an
early retirement from the business. However, big boss Jimmy
Price hands down a tough assignment: find Charlotte Ryder,
the missing rich princess daughter of Jimmy's old pal Edward,
a powerful construction business player and gossip papers
socialite. Complicating matters are two million pounds' worth
of Grade A ecstasy, a brutal neo-Nazi sect and a whole series
of double crossings.
The title "Layer Cake" refers to the layers or levels
the dealer has to go through as he painstakingly plots his
own escape. What is revealed is a modern underworld where
the rules have changed. There are no 'codes', or 'families'
and respect lasts as long as a line. Not knowing who he can
trust, he has to use all his 'savvy', 'telling' and skills
which make him one of the best, to escape his own. The ultimate
last job, a love interest called Tammy and an international
drugs ring, threaten to draw him back into the 'cake mix'.
But, time is running out and the penalty will endure a lifetime.
