Book Overview
WINNER OF THE McILVANNEY PRIZE for SCOTTISH CRIME NOVEL OF THE YEAR A raw, fast-paced, and darkly comic thriller and "an amazingly accomplished debut," perfect for fans of Ian Rankin and Val McDermid - The Times Crime Book of the Month "An absolute knockout Pitch-dark and yet dripping with warmth. Packed with brilliantly drawn characters, laugh-out-loud humour, and lots of blood - what's not to love?" - Caz Frear, author of Sweet Little Lies From a hard-hitting and brutally funny new voice in crime writing comes the first in a new series starring DI Alison McCoist - the least popular detective in the Glasgow police. Half the Glasgow copshop think DI Alison McCoist is bent. The other half just think she's a fuck-up. No one thinks very much at all about carwash employee Davey Burnet, until one day he takes the wrong customer's motor for a ride. One kidnapping later, he and the carwash are officially part of Glasgow's criminal underworld, working for a psychopath who enjoys playing games like 'Keep Yer Kneecaps' with any poor bastard who crosses him. Can Davey escape from the gang's clutches with his kneecaps and life intact? Perhaps this polis Ally McCoist who keeps nosing around the carwash could help. That's if she doesn't get herself killed first. Don't miss this propulsively readable story of two likeable but flawed characters sucked into a grim criminal underworld -think wayward Scottish police meets Breaking Bad. Features an exclusive excerpt from Paperboy, the next Alison McCoist thriller.
