Description
Set in smoky London pubs, turf accountants and Newmarket racetrack, Odds & Sods introduces McQueen, an engaging grifter, hell-bent on making a fortune by levelling up the score on bookies for the murder of his beloved grandfather.
Gabby, his con-artist partner, gets on board, along with French racehorse trainer, Francoise Toussaint. Having recently fled France after losing her husband in a suspicious shooting, then her stables and horses in an arson attack. Hoping for vengeance she joins forces with McQueen and Gabby, securing the best racehorse for their scam and helps McQueen and his dream team of Cockney rebels and Northern souls prepare a 'race for revenge'.
Was anyone up for it? You bet they were.
But McQueen's meticulous planning doesn't factor in his old enemy, the underworld gang leader, Edinburgh's Lennox Docherty.
Was Team McQueen ready for Docherty? And was Docherty ready for them? Could anyone back down once they were off?
