Sinossi
Has Pearce finally found his match? A time-served Edinburgh hard man, Pearce is still recovering from the recent loss of his mother in a stabbing incident in a post office robbery. He's invited by the dysfunctional Baxter family to protect their pregnant 16-year-old daughter from Wallace, her 26-year-old husband, a man with a penchant for killing family pets. Having found out that the baby's not his, Wallace has sworn vengeance. Pearce declines the job: he's no babysitter. But when Wallace kills Pearce's dog, he goes too far. Now it's personal. It's time to find out who the real hard man is.

Recensione
possibly the most extraordinary white-knuckle ride of violent chaos and deathly dark humour I have ever come across... His prose is clinically efficient, his storytelling consummate, his dialogue sparkles and snaps on the page, and his blend of black humour and breathless action is impossible to put down. --The Herald
one of the most hilarious and gruesome crime novels it has ever been my pleasure to read...Guthrie s delicious sense of humour and gut-churningly inventive imagination make this a joy from start to finish. --Good Reading Magazine
Guthrie has given us a wonderful, darkly surreal noir novel. This is an author who, after three books, has found his voice near pitch perfect. --Crimescenescotland.com
