A deliciously dark, unapologetically funny, and nail-bitingly tense psychological thriller by the international bestselling author of The Cry NUMBER ONE BESTSELLER *** Guardian, Telegraph, Herald Scotland AND The Week BOOK OF THE YEAR*** *** Sunday Times TOP 40 Crime Novels in the Last 5 Years*** ***Longlisted for Theakston's Old Peculier Crime Novel of the Year Award 2020*** 'Shocking, gripping and laugh-out-loud hilarious from the first line to the last. Brilliant' Erin Kelly 'This frenetic novel's strongest assets are its sheer verbal energy and the acerbic views of its heroine, who resembles a female Frankie Boyle' Sunday Times 'The main character is one of the most extraordinary you'll meet between the pages of a book' Ian Rankin 'A scandalously rude comic masterpiece' Daily Telegraph 'Sublime' Guardian _________________ Mary Shields is a moody, acerbic probation offer, dealing with some of Glasgow's worst cases, and her job is on the line. Liam Macdowall was imprisoned for murdering his wife, and he's published a series of letters to the dead woman, in a book that makes him an unlikely hero – and a poster boy for Men's Rights activists.
