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 founding director 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.Languages:EnglishPublisher:Severn HouseISBN-13:9781448315420ISBN-10:1448315425UPC:9781448315420Book Category:FictionBook Subcategory:Mystery & Detective, Thrillers, NoirBook Topic:Amateur Sleuth, CrimeSize:8.60 x 5.50 x 1.10 inchesWeight:0.9Product ID:SCC91NFPBZ
Gordon Brown, also writing as Morgan Cry, has eleven crime and thriller books published to date, along with a novella and a number of short stories. Gordon is a founding director of Bloody Scotland, Scotland's International Crime Writing Festival and runs a strategic planning consultancy. He lives in Scotland (and when Brexit rules allow, Spain) and is married with two children - who have long since flown the nest. In a former life Gordon delivered pizzas in Toronto, sold non-alcoholic beer in the Middle East, launched a creativity training business, floated a high tech company on the London Stock Exchange, compered the main stage at a two-day music festival and was once booed by 49,000 people while on the pitch at a major football Cup Final.
