"'Welcome New Member of the Tartan Noir Pack' Val McDermid"
Product Description
The body of a prostitute is discovered in Glasgow's Queen Street Station, sparking a murder hunt that focuses on the city's seamier side. But when the body of a young nurse is found dead in a private clinic, with her corpse positioned in an identical way to that of the first victim, DCI Lorimer and psychologist, Solomon Brightman, must decide if this is the work of a serial killer. Once again, Gray takes the reader on a journey through the streets of Glasgow, this time weaving the very fabric of both the city with the wilds of the Scottish Outer Hebrides in her tale.

A good read,
By
This review is from: A Small Weeping (Paperback)
I have just discovered Alex Gray and am working my way through her Glasgow novels. They are a good read - not great, just good. If you are a Glaswegian like me you will enjoy reading about the various places Lorimer visits. As a crime writer, her books get better as you go through them. I'm a fan of Stuart McBride, Ian Rankin and Peter Robinson who, I think, are brilliant at their craft. Alex Gray is not in their league, but enjoyable nevertheless.

Nice story,

This review is from: A Small Weeping (Paperback)
Hi
This is a nice story with some good characters and a reasonble plot. Slightly spoiled by the feeling I had that the author did not have good knowledge of some of the people who had disabilites that she was talking about.... The un-masking was a surprise (partly becasue I had forgotton who the perpetrator was....) Note to authors - try and give all your main characters very different names so your busy readers do not muddle them !! ..... But overall, worth reading.
