NOTES

One man's race against time to track down a deadly narcotic before it hits the streets of the seaside hometown he thought he'd never return to. The first in a new Tartan Noir mystery series by Bloody Scotland co-founder Gordon Brown writing as Morgan Cry. Disgraced, demoralised and recently retired Glasgow police constable Blake Glover returns to his childhood home of Fraserburgh on the north-east shoulder of Scotland. While driving a taxi to occupy himself and contemplate his future he is asked to discreetly investigate the disappearance of a young woman. Blake reluctantly agrees to help and stumbles upon a mysterious stately home which appears to be involved in smuggling people from around the world for a highly addictive and deadly narcotic. The more Blake investigates the more he uncovers a massive plot involving money, blackmail, drugs and murder. With the fear that the narcotic will make it onto the streets of his hometown, Blake must track down the drugs before time runs out or watch people he cares about meet a gruesome end. Fans of VAL McDERMID, IAN RANKIN, DENISE MINA and WILLIAM McILVANNEY shouldn't miss this intricately plotted, clever and suspenseful series debut by Scottish crime writer Morgan Cry
