It's
hardly surprising that John McLaren has already sold the film
rights to Black Cabs (along with his earlier Press Send),
as this powerful thriller moves with the velocity of an action-packed
movie. Using three London cabbies as his protagonists, the
uncompromising picture of London life on both sides of the
river is idiosyncratic and astringent.When three cabbies attempt
to make a killing on the stock market by eavesdropping on
the plans of a corporate magnate to engineer a huge take-over,
they find they have taken on the sinister might of international
banking community. The beleaguered heroes, Len, Terry and
Einstein, soon find the sharp suits they are up against have
no scruples about using extreme violence to protect their
interests--a top financial executive is discovered dead in
the back of a cab, and the boys are forced to investigate
a monumental cover-up. A further turn of the screw is provided
by Len's desperation for the money--on which his daughter's
life depends.

Through
the author’s humorous account of his taxi-driving days,
the reader gains an insight into the rich variety of people
with whom he has come into contact: the famous, the awkward,
the shoppers, the emergencies, the crime, the late night clubbers,
the mean and the generous tippers. This is Glasgow, rich in
variety, seen through the twinkling eyes of a likeable cab-driver
whose humanity shines through.

from his sleeplessness and his disgust with the corruption
he finds around him. His pent-up rage, fuelled by his doomed
relationship with a political campaign worker, leads to an

I initially
tried this as a demo some months before its UK release and
found it to be a lot of fun, which in turn caused me to buy
the game, it reminded me of the old Midtown Madness games
and also of the cardboard cutout graphics of 'London Racer'.
