Publisher Description

In this noir thriller, two friends are consumed by their new careers as debt collectors in the dark underworld of Glasgow. 

“Malcolm Mackay has created his own world.” —The Sunday Times (UK)

“A sharp-edged morality play delivered with the relentless intensity of machine gunfire.” —Library Journal

Oliver Peterkinney and Alex Glass, two friends from Glasgow’s desperate fringes, become involved in one of the city’s darkest and most dangerous trades: debt collection. While one rises quickly through the ranks, the other falls prey to the industry’s addictive lifestyle, accumulating steep debts of his own.

Meanwhile, the three most powerful rivals in the business—Marty Jones, ruthless pimp; Potty Cruickshank, member of the old guard; and Billy Patterson, brutal newcomer—vie for prominence. And now Peterkinney, young and darkly ambitious, is beginning to make himself known.

Before long, violence will spill out onto the streets, as those at the top make deadly attempts to outmaneuver one another for a bigger share of the spoils. Peterkinney and Glass will find themselves at the very center of this war; as the pressure builds, each will find their actions—and inactions—coming back to haunt them. But it is those they love who will suffer most . . .
