Ur läsarrecensioner: "Mackay can really write! Another dandy fast paced multilayered crackerjack of a story. Carrying on with Glasgow's underworld "industry" and many characters from earlier works, Mackay crafts a new narrative around two friends caught in the human storm of criminal life.", "My only regret about Malcolm Mackay is that he has written four books with one to come in August. I will pine for the next one. He is fun, bright and clever. Thank you."
"Anybody who has read "The Glasgow Trilogy" will know how good this guy is at creating excellent plots and intriguing characters in the shady world of exploiters and exploited players in the world of crime. This stand alone book maintains the standard. Another excellent read."
Om boken: Oliver Peterkinney and Alex Glass, two friends from Glasgow's desperate fringes, become involved in one of the city's darkest and most dangerous debt collection. While one rises quickly through the ranks, the other falls prey to the industry's addictive lifestyle, accumulating steep debts of his own.Meanwhile, the three most powerful rivals in the business--Marty Jones, ruthless pimp; Potty Cruickshank, member of the old guard; and Billy Patterson, brutal newcomer--vie for prominence. And now Peterkinney, young and darkly ambitious, is beginning to make himself known.Before long, violence will spill out onto the streets, as those at the top make deadly attempts to out-maneuver one another for a bigger share of the spoils. Peterkinney and Glass will find themselves at the very center of this war; as the pressure builds, each will find their actions--and in-actions--coming back to haunt them. But it is those they love who will suffer most . . .
