After having read and loved Close Quarters I was delighted to see this in Waterstones.

Once again, McAllister writes with wit and a keen awareness of what makes Glasgow tick; the people. Each character feels so authentic and the relationships between them are honest and realistic.

Once again, there was a twist in the plot which just took great, darkly comic writing to a whole new level. I cannot recommend this enough.
