The story

London gangster Willie Parker gives evidence against his fellow criminals in return for a very generous offer from the police.

Braddock is a world-weary professional killer while Myron is his perky but volatile apprentice.

Parker mischievously announces his identity to them, causing Braddock to take Maggie with them as insurance.
