3rd of a trilogy about Glasgow and a hired gun...
LibraryThing member fizzypops
A superlative end to the Glasgow trilogy. Malcolm Mackay's intricate plots, his staccato writing style and the brooding presence of grimy Glasgow ever present as the story unfolds. I tore through this masterpiece of 'tartan noir'. Bravo, Mr Mackay, these excellent works were the greatest companions
