Paperback. Condizione: Good. Frankie Crowe is not one of the great criminal masterminds. A small time thug, he thinks-to the extent he can-that kidnapping one of Dublin's newly rich businessmen just may be the low-risk fast track to the status and money he knows he deserves. When the local crime boss refuses him permission to make the snatch, he shoots the boss and commences with his plan-such as it is. After a somewhat haphazard selection, Frankie's crew of casually vicious miscreants kidnaps the wife of a moderately prosperous lawyer rather than the spouse of the wealthy banker Frankie thought he had chosen. From that point forward, no one from Inspector John Grace to that pillar of Dublin gangland Jo-Jo Mackendrick can predict the next twist in a scheme that has gone from wrong to bad to worse. Like Elmore Leonard's, Kerrigan's writing is propelled by character. His novel is alive to the codes and expectations of the varied sections of modern Irish society. His narrative is taut and harrowing, his dialogue spot-on. The resulting story is everything Frankie Crowe is not: smart, assured and confident-forming an exciting combination of entertainment and art available only in superior crime fiction.…

Paperback. Condizione: Good. The third dark and gripping Harry McCoy thriller from the most exciting new voice in Scottish noir. July 1973. The Glasgow drug trade is booming and Bobby March, the city's own rock-star hero, has just overdosed in a central hotel. Alice Kelly is thirteen years old, lonely. And missing. Meanwhile the niece of McCoy's boss has fallen in with a bad crowd and when she goes missing, McCoy is asked--off the books--to find her. McCoy has a hunch that there's a connection between these events. But time to prove it is running out, the papers are out for blood, and the department wants results fast. Justice must be served. A beautifully written and pitch-perfect depiction of both the dark underbelly of 1970s Glasgow--its music, hard men, political infighting, class divisions, and the moral questions at its heart--and of the city's perfect fallen angel, Harry McCoy. …

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. In the town of Yport, during a run along Europe's tallest cliff, Jamal notices a red scarf hanging on a fence. Then he sees the woman, her dress torn, her back to the void, her eyes fixed on his own. Jamal holds the scarf out to her like a buoy. A few seconds later, the stranger's lifeless body is found lying on the icy pebbles of the empty beach below. Around her neck, the red scarf. Everyone thinks he pushed her. He only wanted to save her. That's Jamal's version. Do you believe it. …
