Half the Glasgow polis 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.©2023 Callum McSorley (P)2023 W. F.

The first of this author’s novels I’ve read and thought it excellent. Simple plot and background though expertly crafted to keep interest up constantly. The narration was first class, with the male narrator’s accents absolutely outstanding - it’s not easy to switch between parts of Scotland and regional variations. The protagonists were plausible and the characterisation excellent. Thoroughly enjoyable romp!

Outstanding narration and accents

Atmosphere and characters are more important than plot and you have to have a strong stomach for the violence. However, dry Glasgow humour offsets the dark and sometimes grisly deeds in this entertainingly narrated crime drama.

Glimpses into the underbelly of urban criminality

It's a funny book, with tons of (cartoonish) violence, but it's also a book about being human and how one stupid decision can ruin your life (and that of innocent bystanders).

So many great characters.

oh those fabulous plot twists

Needs more complexity in individual characters and a greater twisting story but not a bad read.

Down to earth characters and storyline

Lots that’s great. Some that’s not so. Mostly a good yarn but over long perhaps for the story to sustain. I began to wonder towards the end how the story had begun. What happened about the two characters murdered at the start of the story, or was that another book? I still don’t know, That’s not good. A bit of editing might help. But overall fairly brilliant. I expect that things can only get better, and better. Looking forward to reading more.
