He was tied to the chair. His throat had been cut clean across, right back to the vertebrae. Splashes of his blood were drying all over the carpet. When Maureen O'Donnell finds her boyfriend butchered in her living room, her world is shattered - and she is the chief suspect in the murder case. The police and her family all cast doubt on her innocence, so Maureen sets out to find answers and clear her name. As she begins to uncover Glasgow's murky underworld, the need for the truth turns even more desperate as another body is found and Maureen begins to fear for her own life...

Excellent opener to the Garnethill trilogy. Quite a dark book but none the less very typical Glasgow humour. Full of realistic characters & dialogue, and with a familiar Glaswegian backdrop. Don’t read this if you object to swearing, it is very much in evidence here.

Denise Mina is speaking at the Albert Halls so I'll release it there.
