Silas Pritchard

Silas works with Malachy Vane, collecting supposed security fees from small shops. A stubborn baker keeps refusing payment and the pair’s employer demands a public example.

Silas works with Malachy Vane, collecting supposed security fees from small shops. He provides the speeches, threats and written receipts while Malachy supplies the muscle.

Silas is fast-talking, outwardly courteous, cruel when contradicted. A stubborn baker keeps refusing payment and the pair’s employer demands a public example.

Silas has evidence against the gang but hides it inside a genuine-looking fee book.
