Prepare to be plunged into the darkest corners of Scotland in these four gritty books; The Angels, The Housewife, The New Friend and The Family Business. The Angels: Amber. As the top performer at Angel Silk gentleman’s club, Amber’s seen it all and been forced to do things she never wanted to do. She’s tired of this life... but can she escape it? Strong queen bee and mother to the girls, Lizzy, has been hiding her own dark secrets – and if they come to light, her life could be destroyed. Jade, the newest dancer at Angel Silk, is innocent, beautiful... and trapped in over her head. The three women must come together to take back their lives from feared gangster, Marcus. Will he let them go – or will finding freedom mean paying the ultimate price? The Housewife: Leah is the perfect mum to ten-year-old Samuel, wife to loving husband Thomas and head of the PTA. But her closet is full of skeletons – and if the truth gets out, her world could be destroyed. Annie is a gangster’s moll who isn’t afraid of getting her hands dirty to play the men at their own game. But what no one knows is the devastating secret haunting her. King of Glasgow gangland, Terry is working his way up from estate to mansion. From drugs to guns, there’s nothing he won’t stop at to grow his dirty money. As their three stories collide, the lives of each will never be the same... The New Friend: Arabella MacQueen had a tough start. Growing up surrounded by drugs and alcohol, getting into trouble as a teen, she’s now in her late-twenties and has turned her life around. Until the fateful night that sees her imprisoned for ten months. She’s hit rock bottom ... but unexpectedly forges a bond with cellmate Roxanne McPhail that lasts beyond the prison walls. Now both women are free, and Arabella is excited about the future with boyfriend Eddie, with Roxanne at her side. But Arabella doesn’t know the truth about her new best friend; about Roxanne’s reputation as the head of Glasgow gangland, about the violence in Roxanne’s past. She doesn’t know that Roxanne has plans for Arabella that might lead her into some very dangerous places... The Family Business: Donnie Black is charming, successful... and utterly terrifying. He rules the Glasgow underworld with an iron fist. Nothing – or no one – will stop him and he’s not afraid to get his hands dirty to grow his fortune. Layla has been married to Donnie for twenty years, enjoying the lavish world he has worked hard to create. But Layla doesn’t know the secrets Donnie keeps – and the truth will send her spiralling. Young, beautiful and innocent Louise Bellshaw is charmed by Donnie and believes she’s found true love. But Louise doesn’t know her dream man has plans that will turn her life into a nightmare – you’ll do anything for the ones you love, won’t you? Completely addictive, gripping gangland thrillers that will have you hooked. Perfect for fans of Martina Cole, Kimberley Chambers and Mandasue Heller.

Book Description
Love. Violence. Destiny. These powerful themes ricochet through Lorenzo Carcaterra’s new novel like bullets from a machine gun. In Gangster, he surpasses even his bestselling Sleepers to create a brutal and brilliant American saga of murder, forgiveness, and redemption. Born in the midst of tragedy and violence and raised in the shadow of a shocking secret, young Angelo Vestieri chooses to flee both his past and his father to seek a second family—the criminals who preside over early 20th century New York. In his bloody rise from soldier to mob boss, he encounters ever more barbaric betrayals—in friendship, in his brutal business, in love—yet simultaneously comes to understand the meaning of loyalty, the virtue of relationships, and gains a perspective on the lonely, if powerful, life he has chosen. As the years pass, as enemies are made and defeated, as wars are fought and won, the old don meets an abandoned boy who needs a parent as much as protection. By taking Gabe under his wing and teaching him everything he knows, Angelo Vestieri will learn, in the winter of his life, which is greater: his love for the boy he cherishes, or his need to be a gangster and to live by the savage rules he helped create. A sweeping panoramic with riveting characters, a unique understanding of the underworld philosophy, and a relentless pace, Gangster travels through the time of godfathers and goodfellas to our own world of suburban Sopranos. But this is more than just an authentic chronicle of crime. Setting a new standard for this acclaimed author, Gangster is a compassionate portrait of one man's fight against his fate—and an unforgettable epic of a family, a city, a century.

Book Description
When a mother is targeted by a dangerous group of masterminds, she must commit a crime to save her kidnapped daughter—or risk losing her forever—in this "propulsive and original" award-winning thriller (Stephen King). It's something parents do every morning: Rachel Klein drops her daughter at the bus stop and heads into her day. But a cell phone call from an unknown number changes everything: it's a woman on the line, informing her that she has Kylie bound and gagged in her back seat, and the only way Rachel will see her again is to follow her instructions exactly: pay a ransom, and find another child to abduct. This is no ordinary kidnapping: the caller is a mother herself, whose son has been taken, and if Rachel doesn't do as she's told, the boy will die. "You are not the first. And you will certainly not be the last."Rachel is now part of The Chain, an unending and ingenious scheme that turns victims into criminals—and is making someone else very rich in the process. The rules are simple, the moral challenges impossible; find the money fast, find your victim, and then commit a horrible act you'd have thought yourself incapable of just twenty-four hours ago. But what the masterminds behind The Chain know is that parents will do anything for their children. It turns out that kidnapping is only the beginning. "McKinty is one of the most striking and most memorable crime voices to emerge on the scene in years. His plots tempt you to read at top speed, but don't give in: this writing—sharply observant, intelligent and shot through with black humor—should be savored." —Tana French "A masterpiece. You have never read anything quite like The Chain and you will never be able to forget it." —Don Winslow "Diabolical, unnerving, and gives a whole new meaning to the word "relentless". Adrian McKinty just leapt to the top of my list of must-read suspense novelists. He's the real deal." —Dennis Lehane "Pairing an irresistible concept with a winner protagonist, The Chain promises to be your new addiction once you succumb to the first enticing page." —Alafair Burke "A grade-A-first-rate-edge-of-your-seat thriller. I can't believe what went through my mind while reading it." —Attica Locke
