Shootout
He's the reluctant hero of the Napier city armed siege. Len Holmwood was in the wrong place at the wrong time - Jan Molenaar's house at the height of the bloody shootout.

Holmwood took a bullet fired by the enraged Molenaar, but at the same time he was acclaimed a hero for trying to wrestle a high powered rifle from Molenaar's grip and saving police lives. What made Molenaar snap? Why did a cannabis search erupt in a hail of bullets? What does Holmwood think of his old mate now?

Len Holmwood and the inside story of the Napier city shooting.
