THE SECOND IN THE ORIGINAL LAIDLAW TRILOGY. WINNER OF THE CWA SILVER DAGGER. THE DARK REMAINS, Laidlaw's first case, out 2 September 2021. PRE-ORDER NOW! 'In a class of his own' Guardian 'Reads like a breathless scalpel through the bloody heart of a great city' Denise Mina Eck Adamson, an alcoholic vagrant, summons Jack Laidlaw to his deathbed.

With stubborn integrity, Laidlaw tracks a seam of corruption that runs from the top to the bottom of society. Acclaimed for its corrosive wit, dark themes and original maverick detective, the Laidlaw trilogy has earned the status of classic crime fiction.

Why McIivanney isn't mentioned in the same breath as Hammett and Chandler, I don't know but he is a master of witty, brilliant writing while his knight Laidlaw, like Marlowe, keeps a moral compass in a seamy world: in this case, Glasgow. This is the second book in the series. "Laidlaw" is the first. Some of the sentences are so wonderfully wrought, I have to stop and read them twice. While Laidlaw and his underling search for answers, you'll be glued to the book.
