Charlie Feehan began running the frigid Melbourne streets at night simply to keep warm. Soon, however, "the sleazy streets seduced me, and, like a moth to the flame I gladly surrendered." Now Charlie is an errand runner for notorious bootlegger Squizzy Taylor. The pay is good and the job is a thrill, but Charlie yearns to put his running skills to a different use: he wants to leave the criminal world behind and enter the prestigious Ballarat Mile race. Library edition with trade jacket added.
