<p><b>Winner of The Bloody Scotland Crime Debut of the Year </b><br><b>Shortlisted for the McIlvanney Prize for Scottish Crime Book of the Year 2021 and the CWA Historical Dagger 2022</b><br><br><b><i>Edge of the Grave</i> by Robbie Morrison is a dark historical crime novel set in 1930s Glasgow. A city still recovering from the Great War; split by religious division and swarming with razor gangs. For fans of William McIlvanney&rsquo;s <i>Laidlaw, </i>Denise Mina and Philip Kerr.</b><br><br><b>'<i>Peaky Blinders</i> meets William McIlvanney in this rollocking riveting read' &ndash; Adrian McKinty, author of <i>The Chain</i></b><br><br>Glasgow, 1932. When the son-in-law of one of the city&rsquo;s wealthiest shipbuilders is found floating in the River Clyde with his throat cut, it falls to Inspector Jimmy Dreghorn to lead the murder case &ndash; despite sharing a troubled history with the victim&rsquo;s widow, Isla Lockhart.<br><br>From the flying fists and flashing blades of Glasgow&rsquo;s gangland underworld, to the backstabbing upper echelons of government and big business, Dreghorn and his partner &lsquo;Bonnie&rsquo; Archie McDaid will have to dig deep into Glasgow society to find out who wanted the man dead and why.<br><br>All the while, a sadistic murderer stalks the post-war city leaving a trail of dead bodies in their wake. As the case deepens, will Dreghorn find the killer &ndash; or lose his own life in the process?<br><br><b>'Astounding. Tense, absorbing and dripping with gallus Glasgow humour, this book is absolutely wonderful' &ndash; Abir Mukherjee, author of the Wyndham &amp; Banerjee series</b><br><br><b>'A magnificent and enthralling portrait of a dark and dangerous city . . . Chilling and brutal, but also deeply moving and, most importantly, beautifully written' &ndash; Mark Billingham, author of the Tom Thorne series</b></p>
