Gangster Crime in Edinburgh, ScotlandWithin days of being released from prison, an Edinburgh gangleader brutally murders a defenceless grandmother in a drunken rage. For years he had harboured a grudge against her son. For the murderer, justice had been done. For those who enforce justice, relationships that develop between criminals, police officers of all ranks, and lawyers who play for both sides as though it were a game, often a well paid one, are complex and, in this case, extremely dangerous.
As retaliations abound, with deaths aplenty, few realise that more summary justice is being meted out, short circuiting the normal process of the law. As the perpetrator of this most efficient form of removing unpleasant people from society begins to appreciate things are 'getting out of hand', so to speak, the pressures of possible exposure and arrest dawn. A thought-provoking novel that views the depths to which an otherwise upright citizen can so rapidly sink.
