»1970-talets Glasgow uthugget i kött och tecknat i blod.« | Peter May

»Mörkt och blodigt, men ruggigt bra berättat.« | Lotta Olsson, Dagens Nyheter

»En riktigt, riktigt bra debut.« | Gunilla Wedding, Skånska Dagbladet

När en tonårspojke skjuter ihjäl en ung kvinna mitt på en trafikerad gata i Glasgow och sedan tar livet av sig är kommissarie Harry McCoy säker på en sak: Det var ingen slumpmässig våldshandling. Tillsammans med sin nya partner använder sig McCoy av sitt nätverk i Glasgows undre värld för att driva utredningen framåt, men snart stöter han på ett hemligt sällskap som leds av stadens rikaste invånare: familjen Dunlop. McCoys chef vill inte att han utreder dem. Dunlop-familjen verkar vara omöjliga att komma åt. Men McCoy har andra idéer...Blodig januari är en tät, vindlande kriminalroman som levandegör den mörka undersidan av sjuttiotalets Glasgow och etablerar Alan Parks som ett av de mest spännande nya namnen inom skotsk noir.

ALAN PARKS föddes i Skottand och gick på Glasgows universitet, där han tog sin master i moralfilosofi. Större delen av sitt liv har han arbetet som fotograf och videoregissör inom musikbranschen och gjort omslag och videor åt band som New Order, All Saints och The Streets. Blodig januari är hans debutroman.

»En klassisk polisroman skriven med finess och ekonomi. Tänk McIlvanney eller Get Carter.« | Ian Rankin
