Summary
In this crime prequel, two crime writers team up for the first ever case of D.I. Laidlaw, Glasgow's original gritty detective who is standing in the midst of gangs, organized crime bosses, crooked politicians, corrupt police and innocent battlers caught in the crossfireLawyer Bobby Carter did a lot of work for the wrong kind of people. When his body is found behind a pub known to be under the protective wing of a local crime boss, the fragile equilibrium that has been keeping Glasgow relatively safe is shattered. DC Jack Laidlaw's boss chalks Carter's death up to the usual rivalries. As two Glasgow gangs go to war, Laidlaw knows he needs to find Carter's killer before the whole city explodes. -- adapted from jacket
