Heavyweight wrestler, security guard, messenger for a sinister Chinese racketeer - Bucket Nut alias Eva Wylie, is mad, bad and dangerous to know. Offered extra work as a bouncer while delivering a package (no questions asked), Eva inadvertently winds up in a battle between rival gangsters. The plot crackles with excitement, blending realism, pathos and humour with a pinch of fantasy. (Kirkus UK)
